Stop Schools & Social Services writing slanderous reports based on opinions.
Writing reports that are based on opinion would stereotype a child prevent them from the experience of unconditional positive regard and its positive effect. Furthermore, the negative regard in a report could create a self fulfilling prophecy, which isnt encouraging a positive growing environment.
Schools especially are a sacred place which should lead by example with positive direction and guidance alone. Speaking negative of people or demonstrating negativity is an encouragement to negative behaviour, not a way of preventing it. Furthermore, the miss use of power by writing reports based on opinions is not only a false definition of character it is also not based on fact, so with this in mind schools and social services should not be entitled to do so.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
Slander is already against the law, so we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
