Rejected petition Ban detentions as it is not a legal requirement to be forced upon

Detentions is not something we are legally required to do there for they should not be allowed to be practiced because it is taking students time and they have free will to use it on what they want

More details

It is not fair and has come to my attention that children should have to spend up to hours in school for failing to follow school not law rules and requirements. It's an injust punish one in a way that affects a students out of school time to do what they please there for I want it to be raised to concern to the parliament.
