Monitor the student
All involved school staff should carefully monitor the student
for potential difficulties in the weeks after a concussion. The
comeback coordinator should take responsibility for regularly
checking in with classroom teachers and other relevant staff
until symptoms have resolved. If any problems are apparent,
the comeback coordinator should ensure the parents and
healthcare team are notified.
In general, school personnel should look for:
• Any change in functioning within the school environment
• Drop in academic performance or grades
• Social or emotional changes
• Unexpected or prolonged absence from school
