Rejected petition A uk wide training course for all social workers to prevent children being hurt

There have been too many deaths of innocent children due to the sheer neglect of social workers over the years that if more training was provided they would have stopped this before it happened

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

We can't accept your petition in its current form as it does not call for a clear action from the UK Government and Parliament. You can find out more about the existing training for social workers here: https://nationalcareersservice.direct.gov.uk/advice/planning/jobprofiles/Pages/socialworker.aspx

You could start a petition which clearly outlines what specific additional training you would like social workers to receive.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
