Petition Take seriously and investigate the disappearance of children from Schools because of Forced Marriage

More details

I petition the Education Secretary to seriously investigate and take action of the disappearance of children from classroom who victims of Forced Marriage.

Nobody should be allowed to simply go missing. It is a known fact from that there are empty seats in classrooms because children are being forced to marry. But yet, there is no defining difference being made.

We can't allow the persistent and continual denial that children aren't going missing from our classrooms and that forced marriages aren't a problem. It is obvious that this prevailing culture of ignorance is a barrier that is a stark endangerment to lives.

Every life matters, there can be no segregation of rights, education and life chances. A person is more than just a number. With every life lost there is another generation gone and that is the ultimate cost.

It is everyone's right to educated and be protected.
