Rejected petition Make it mandatory for schools to educate over disabilities/conditions/illness.

Make it mandatory for schools to educate children over disabilities / conditions that children have or are diagnosed with in their class to prevent bullying and to help other children understand the disability/condition.

More details

Many children with a disability are bullied or made to feel different. The more we educate, the more children will understand and this will create a better environment and life to the children with disabilities. Let all children thrive. Normalise insulin pumps / colostomy bags / catheters. Let them grow and understand together.
