Thanks guys.

Our issue is we live in a regional city. DS goes to one of the smallest schools in town, so they have very limited experience with allergies and/or intolerances.

It's just been a series of misunderstandings, and fumblings and mostly a massive learning curve. As soon as day care knew he had allergies and intolerances we were bombarded with information and practically spoon fed. Like with most things school, its much more independent and I've had to go searching for what I need to do and even then I haven't been fully informed each time.

The school doesn't have a form that they copy information onto, they use ASCIA forms, which are a proper medical document, so neither myself, nor the school can actually fill it in. I didn't know this at first hence the first hiccup. But the ASCIA form is also an allergy form, not an intolerance form which causes its own issues, as allergies and intolerances are two completely different kettle of fish. Neither less important than the other except so far as anaphaylaxis is concerned, but again, even that is a separate form.

Changing GPs has been tried and tested, this one is the best that we have found and who can also deal with DS' other issues. But I guess also, all schools it seem have different expectations of what needs to be completed so far as their allergy plans go, so it's not a one size fits all anyway.

DS has been tested beansbeans? We know exactly what he is allergic and intolerant to. We know what he is allergic to, we don't know how he will react to some of them in a real life exposure.
