There should be a Me 2 rule for boys at school.

Rejected 9 signatures

What the petition asks

I want you to consider a me 2 rule for boys at school because boys can also suffer from sexual harassment but this is often overlooked or not acted upon.
Because boys are made to feel that their behaviour is constantly under threat of being misunderstood and used as a weapon against them.

Why it was rejected

The UK Government or Parliament was already taking the action it asked for.

Schools are responsible for protecting the welfare of all students, irrespective of their sex.

If you have been a victim of sexual harassment or are concerned about your school's policy on sexual harassment you should speak to your parents or a teacher about this.

If you want to speak to someone about sexual harassment in school you could contact Childline: https://www.childline.org.uk/
