The ISPAD Position Statement on Type 1 Diabetes in Schools is based upon the 2018 ISPAD Clinical Guidelines for Management of Type 1 Diabetes in School and draws upon the published position statements on diabetes in schools of many countries. The input from less-resourced communities in Ghana, Pakistan, Haiti, Ecuador, Bolivia, and India is acknowledged and appreciated. The authors also acknowledge the input of parents, adolescents living with type 1 diabetes, school personnel, and experienced health care professionals who have contributed ideas and clarification of roles. The principles of this ISPAD Position Statement on Type 1 Diabetes in Schools should be applicable globally. ISPAD strongly supports compliance with legal protections for children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes to attend school, to be safe at school, and to receive optimal medical management at school and in all school-associated activities.
