This petition was submitted during the 2017-2019 parliament
Rejected petition Introduce guards in schools to safeguard our children from acts of violence.
Parents have to send children into school by law and yet we have no reassurance that they are safe.
VIPs, elected officials, courthouses .. the list goes on of places that use guards.
Our children NEED to be included in this list.
Eliminate acts of violence against schools!

I hope enough people agree with and sign this petition so that the numbers will speak for themselves.
We have all heard of the tragedy’s in the past and personally as a Mum it terrifies me.
The current system is leaving our children vulnerable.
Parents need peace of mind and our children deserve protection.
This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
We can't accept your petition because school security is the responsibility of individual schools and not the UK Government or Parliament.
You could start a new petition calling for the UK Government to provide a police presence at all schools if that is something you would like to see happen.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
