Enforce the discipline in schools to stop bullying no more verbal warnings

Rejected 15 signatures

What the petition asks

A family member is getting bullied and the school have been informed several times but nothing has changed and the bullying is getting worse. A lot of verbal warnings and talks are being given but no action. So I want the verbal warnings to go and more discipline to help put an end to this.
For what the school can and should be doing:

There are a lot of things the schools could be doing so they need to toughen up and crack down on these bullies. As one day it will save a life and the stress from a family.





Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action. We're not sure what action you would like to deal with bullying in schools. You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. For example, you could ask the Government to make a specific change to the guidance it gives to schools. You could also sign one of the existing petitions on our site about bulling in schools.
