First thing A&E doctor asked before gluing me together was Were you wearing a helmet?
Concussion protocol - you have an injury on your head, and they need to need to ascertain the likelihood of brain injury.

Really? Unless they actually instrumented your head with accelerometers during the accident, they have no way of refining their guess about the probability of concussion from knowing whether or not you were wearing a helmet.

Concussion protocol
I doubt is was owt to do with that. That was covered by the shining of lights into eyes, asking about queasiness and other things that are actually relevant.
In more recent news I just sneezed and tore open my eyebrow wound. The doctor described the stuff they used to stick it together as 'basically superglue'. Would I be ok to fix it using actually superglue? I'm thinking it might sting, but I doubt copydex would hold it.

I guess a full face BMX lid might have helped.
As others say, the general helmet attitude is so ingrained you'll fail if you challenge the letter publicly and the school is probably getting pressure from locals. Just write back acknowledging their difficult situation and explaining why you disagree. Anything more confrontational will be counterproductive.
