Require schools to teach students about knife crime as part of the curriculum

What the petition asks
We want the government to raise awareness about knife crime and add it to the primary and secondary school curriculums. We think this could help the knife crime rate go down and make children aware so when they grow up they might be less likely to do it.
We think educating children from a young age about knife crime could help solve the issue
