What the petition asks
Hi,
As a school child I feel sometimes feel discriminated against for simply wearing black ‘trainers’ to school . I feel this need to change as it is simply pointless that a young well behaved child is getting in trouble for ‘apparently’ breaking school rules

Furthermore this isn’t effecting our education and is making children come to school worried about getting punished just for a the shoes on there feet
