Make nit nurses mandatory in schools

What the petition asks
I feel it is totally unfair for lots of children to suffer with nits due to a few parents who don’t check and go through their children’s hair. I believe if we were to bring back the nit nurse, there would be a huge decrease in cases of nits.
