Photosensitivity -sunlight allergy - PMLE - child

Hi
This is my first post :D
My daughter (6) has photosensitivity and it’s warming up here in sunny Shropshire.
Summer term at school and really don't know what to do. She’s unable to keep out of the light/sun at school. Keeping her home affects her attendance.
She has uv protection clothing, hats, sun cream, but she still needs to be in the shade /indoors.

Anyone else with a child with this, how do you manage spring and summer term? - she has sensitivities, allergies and intolerances to foods, medicines, latex, the sun!

Skin problems known as photosensitivity disorders are those in which exposure to visible light or ultraviolet (UV) radiation results in an aberrant cutaneous reaction.
