Underage gaming is an increasing problem in primary school education, where children as young as 6 years old are using racist and sexual references they have copied from games.

Stratton Primary School believe the solution isn't to tell people what to do and regulate. It is up to parents to decide what is right for their own children.

Instead we call on all gaming manufacturers of 18 Certificate-rated video games to voluntarily publish clearer warnings on their front cover packaging, not on the back in small print (similar to tobacco packaging in style and prominence).

This responsible act on the part of video game makers will ensure all parents can make fully-informed choices about whether their children should be playing a particular game.

This change will have no negative impact on sales of these products to their target market i.e. responsible adults.

If you share our view, please sign this petition to make a change.

This petition is supported by the full Governing body at Stratton Primary School.
