Give some leway on taking just water to school
I understand there is a policy in schools to only take water for children to drink through the day. I think there should be some leway on this as not all children like water and on hot days their not drinking enough.
Children should be able to take flavoured still water or sugar free dilute juice.
I wouldn't rather a child drink throughout the day then have a child dehydrated in hospital. Schools can not force a child to drink water if they don't like it.
Having a drink is a human right!
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions must call for a specific action that the UK Government or House of Commons is responsible for.
Decisions about what drinks children can take to school are a matter for individual schools, not the Government or House of Commons.
As a result it is not possible for the Government or House of Commons to take the action you have requested.
