Closed Make self-defence lessons compulsory on the school curriculum

Closed on

Make self-defence lessons a mandatory part of the curriculum. We need to ensure that children are able to stay safe, and self-defence lessons could help.

We want the Government to make self-defence lessons compulsory in schools, potentially as part of the PE or PHSE curriculum.

If we can do one thing right let’s make sure our kids can defend themselves.
