Make primary schools allow kids toilet breaks during class time

Closed 72 signatures

What the petition asks

My son has ongoing trouble with faecal impaction. If he can't go to the loo he can become blocked and then be unwell/vomiting for a week. This will mean a 5 minute toilet visit being refused will cost him 5 days approx absence and this will result in us receiving snotty letters for attendance.
