Make Ofsted assess children's mental health when assessing schools.

Closed 37 signatures

What the petition asks

I believe that mental health should be taken into account by Ofsted. Ofsted should report on the mental health of the pupils in schools they inspect.

I was personally an A* student in nearly every subject, but I had mental health problems. I was told that this is not factored into any student when assessing a child. We need change!
