This petition was submitted during the 2015-2017 parliament
Rejected petition Make all Schools take all types of Bullying seriously, & follow their Policies
Bullying in Schools has become a huge issue & Children are taking their own lives due to it, After a huge amount of research i have found that a lot of the problems seem to be made worse by Schools not supporting the victims and sometimes ignoring them. Schools need to change their views on Bullying
More details
Child Suicides due to Bullying have been reported on the News recently.
My Child has been a victim of Bullying and the Schools approach was disgraceful.
I have interviewed a Lady about the issues she has had with the way a School dealt with her Son being bullied.
I have read some articles on this issue also.
This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
The creation of bullying codes, and the enforcement of bullying policies, is the responsibility of individual schools, not of the UK Government or Parliament.
If you are concerned about the handling of bullying in schools, you could start a new petition asking for the Government to create a single bullying law that applies to all schools in England.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
