Prevent schools from contributing towards childhood eating disorders.
Stop subjecting our children to public humiliation by exposing their physical differences in front of staff members and peers.
I am raising the current petition in order to prevent schools from contributing toward childhood eating disorders. According to the NHS over £70M was invested by the government by 2021. However, our children are currently subject to public weigh-ins facing embarrassment and receiving labels regarding their body weight. The implications of such actions are causing children self esteem/ body issues. We therefore recommend private weigh-ins to avoid such consequences.
