Focus on teaching

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Teachers are more bothered about the children’s appearance these days instead of the fact they are there to teach! Times have changed, children are non binary, trans ect they should be allowed to express themselves with their image

I am now homeschooling my daughter because of the abuse she was getting from teachers about her uniform - nails, hair colour ect, children would have less mental health issues if they were left alone to be themselves and teachers do their job and teach!

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 understand that you are concerned about the enforcing of school dress codes and how it can have an effect on students and teachers but we're not sure exactly what action you'd like the Government or Parliament to take.
