Introduce self-defence training in schools to protect our children

Petition Details

We want the government to introduce self-defence classes in our schools as part of the curriculum.

Additional Information

We want the government to do this because of how violent the streets have become across the UK. It would give our children the skills, discipline and knowledge of how to avoid dangerous situations and how to be physical in defence if that circumstance ever arose.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

There's already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.

You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.

We think this petition is similar

If you'd like this to include the primary curriculum, we could accept a new petition that sets that out clearly.
