Yes, unfortunately it is. Primary schools do not have the power to keep children in after school without the parents' consent (would you be mean enough to give your child a detention?). However, it is up to the school as to what children do during school hours within reason. Sorry to tell you this, because you probably asked because your child had been given an unfair detention (it has happened to me once).

Is it legal for schools to give you a detention for having to use the restroom?

Schools generally have policies regarding restroom use, but it is typically not legal for them to give a student a detention solely for needing to use the restroom. Students have the right to attend to their basic needs, including using the restroom. However, if a student frequently abuses restroom privileges or disrupts class, disciplinary action may be warranted. It’s best to check specific school policies and local regulations for more detailed information.
