We are raising awareness to some of the ongoing issues due to policies and rules being set out in academy schools. We as parents have nothing against our children following rules during school hours. However when their mental health’s are suffering and some of these policies are doing more damage than good something needs to change. The education system is now the second priority in school environments, rules and appearance are the majority of what’s being taught here alongside adults on a power trip causing more harm than good to our children. There is no support or mental health services on site to access. Any question of the policies gets shut down and leads to threats. We need to speak up and try and make a difference for the sake of our children’s futures before they get lost in the system and miss out on an education they are entitled to. We would like to create a change where the schools focus is more education based and able to offer on site support during this crucial time in adolescents lives before the damage they are causing to the younger generation is to late. Every time we have tried to raise concerns we have been left with threats or no answers.
