Rejected petition Implement strict policies for bullying in all schools and education settings.

We implore Justine Greening Secretary of State for Education and parliament to devise and implement strict policies to address bullying in schools and other educational settings, with breaches to policy punishable by law. With its own appointed body to enforce policies and for parents to complain.

More details

Lately I've herd of so many children being bullied and the schools are failing them.
Schools have responsibility for our children for many hours and should be protecting them. Instead many do little or nothing to help those that are being bullied. One parent has told me her 14 year old girl is now self harming and the schools response is to victimise her further by seclusion at break times! Another pupil at the school committed suicide. Inforce schools take better care of ours kids.
