Impose fines on parents/carers of children who harm/bully other children

Open for signatures 40 signatures

What the petition asks

We don’t think schools are doing enough to stop fights between students, and call on the Government to introduce legislation to impose fines of at least £100 on the parents/carers of a child over 11 who harms/bullies another child causing injury on school grounds.
Teachers must also take trauma informed training in how to prevent and stop fights.
