Rejected petition: Student’s right to Use School Toilets During Lessons
Rejected on
As a student, I believe we should have reasonable toilet access during lessons. Students on periods may need to use the toilet urgently. We’re told to drink more water, especially after PE, but then told to drink less if we need the toilet. This is unfair and contradictory.

We’re also encouraged to drink more water, especially after PE, but then may be told to drink less because we need the toilet. This is contradictory and unfair. Students should not have to choose between their health, hydration, dignity and school rules.
