Rejected petition Educate secondary school children about rape and sexual assault

More details

At the moment nowhere near enough is being done to raise awareness about rape and sexual assault in secondary school. There is no warning or advice given to students at any level about their rights or laws regarding sexual assault and rape. The government should immediately implement a rape awareness campaign across all secondary schools and ensure that all students are made aware of both the preventative measures and the help that is available to them.
