Stop schools taking away our rights by putting us in isolation.

Petition Details

Schools use isolation to take away our rights such as us interacting with other students and giving us limited toilet breaks, isolation does us no favours and we just want to get rid of it as it's a complete breach of our human rights.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise.

The use of isolation rooms and the conditions applied to them are a matter for the individual school. You could raise this issue with your school's governing body.

You can find advice for Headteachers on the use of isolation rooms here:

You could start a new petition calling for the UK Government to change the advice given to Headteachers if that is something you would like to see happen.
