Rejected petition We would like the "nit nurse" brought back into schools

We would like the "nit nurse" brought back into schools. It's not nice for the children to be left with nits/lice and parents not treating hair properly and leaving children and parents who do their children's hairs treating them every week

More details

My daughter was back in school after the holidays and within the week she had nits AGAIN. This isn't fair on the children as its agonising being treated every week! We need to get back on top of this and educate and help parents to help keep their children's hair clear.
