Typical recipe ingredients:

1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon fine salt
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature, plus more for preparing the pan
1 cup sugar
3 very ripe bananas, peeled, and mashed with a fork (about 1 cup)
1/2 cup toasted walnut pieces
Care to re-think your comment about how bananas sweeten the bread?
As to the specific situation in Calgary, it’s a mixed bag as to how best to deal with this. IMO, no student, regardless any disability, should be separated from the group for other than legitimate educational purposes. The “healthy eating” program doesn’t meet that criteria. If this happened in the US, I’m quite confident the mother would definitely have a cause of action against the school and it would be on multiple fronts. The school would end up on the short end of the deal.
You cite a “typical” recipe... There are different recipes that use no added sugar or use honey...some use a mix of wheat flour and unbleached some use unbleached flour....so you use your recipe and I’ll use mine and even if we used yours, the results aren’t that unhealthy....so I still don’t get the school’s issues.
Sounds yummy, but there are some two or three ingredient variations, such as mashed bananas and dry oatmeal mixed together and baked. It makes more of a cookie-like treat, but there’s no sugar in it. But, yeah, good old fashioned banana bread has some sugar in it.
Here’s a recipe that actually IS healthy, and only has 1/2 cup of honey in it. (Has unsweetened applesauce in it, too, to make it taste sweet) :
