Question 1

Can a child return to class or play straight after a seizure?

After any seizure, the child should be monitored until fully conscious and back to their normal baseline; many will be confused or sleepy and need rest and observation. Follow their care plan and local policy; some situations will require same-day medical review even if they seem well again.
