Stop the teachers from having the right to seize students’ property/belongings
Obviously teachers/members of staff should be able to comfiscate stuff like knives, alcohol, drugs etc but when a teacher/member of staff confiscated something like a phone and then doesn’t have legal responsibility if it gets lost or broken is obviously outrageous and bias towards the teacher.
In the petition I want a change in the law so that schools can’t confiscate belongings like phones and coats and instead teachers can take phones for whole lessons and if the phone isn't handed over approaite sanctions are taken. Schools having no punishment for breaking or loosing students’ phones is what I like to call legalised theft
