Rejected petition Teach primary school pupils and above about sexual consent.

I believe consent should be taught at a young age and sadly many children are not being taught it at home so school should make it a mandatory subject.

More details

Because school is a public body. Many children do not understand consent and this then leads into adulthood. If it is being taught it should be taught correctly to stop the never ending cycle of abused people.
