If you can move a hive or two to drain off the flyers then minimal 
protection should be needed.

Over here we would expect to have to do a full risk assessment with the 
college and each student would be required to sign a written disclaimer 
which would also ask questions about all previous allergic reactions.  (We 
have also introduced this into our association apiary.)  You cannot be too 
careful these days.
