Petition Action

Allow students the right to go to the toilet at times that they need it.

Petition Details

Change law surrounding school toilet breaks, so students have the right to go through lessons, especially now when lessons are upto 100 minutes long, and toilet ques at lunch time can last 20 minutes.

Additional Information

I trust that the Government will consider this petition, as schools will not do anything to help. Speaking from personal experience, I was sent to isolation (behavioural unit) for 2 days, due to going to the toilet during a lesson, at 11.05, when I hadn't been since leaving the house at 7.40am that day. I asked and was refused permission
