STOP SCHOOLS FROM LOCKING TOILETS DURING SCHOOL

Petition Details

Stop schools from locking toilets during school time

Additional Information

The administration at Balerno Community High School have decided locking toilets during school-time is the way forward. We are a school of 800+ and during lessons we have to share 2 toilets, sadly, sometimes the toilets aren‘t re-opened during lunch and break, causing queues. 1 of the 2 open toilets has a glass window above the door and directly opens into a corridor, a clear breach of privacy. Blockages are common, stopping the flush from functioning, rendering the 2 toilets we have useless.
