When I was in elementary school and my seizures weren't controlled my parents asked the school to arrange for a paraprofessional with seizure training to be with me at all times give me enough freedom to feel independent by not standing/hovering over me just be in the room/walk to the bathroom with me just in case, so they have someone trained to take action if/when needed also it helped the teacher for when other students or I had questions they were able to help
