Petition Provide adequate education concerning bullying and mental health issues

More details

Social education classes should include more in depth information on bullying, this should be taught in primary and secondary education, mental health topics should also be included in class as depression for example can occur due to bullying, also children are sometimes bullied due to a mental illness and it would help to make children aware of these illnesses so they were more accepted and not seen as taboo.
Child suicides appear to be on the rise and bullying is often the main reason, parents entrust their children to an educational system that at this moment seems to be failing many children
