Potassium bromide is different. It is suitable for yr7-12.
Check the label, they are two different chemicals.

When I was unsure of a chemical, I did a bit of research and found this on the DET website
An online Chemical Safety in Schools
https://portalsrvs.det.nsw.edu.au/f5-w- ... /app_h.htm
I printed up the Chemicals banned in schools and now keep it as a hard standalone copy
