The Safer Schools Campaign, made up of more than 150 families that have lost children to suicide or had them seriously harmed or killed, due to bullying, physical and sexual violence in UK schools, is led by former teacher Jason Barnett.
For a number of years, the campaign has been calling on Government for an inquiry into a number of systemic failings, as well as an alleged cover up of the issues by ministers and MPs, knowing an inquiry would help ensure the safety of millions of children across the UK.
The High Court assessing criminal allegations of a cover-up, accepted the failure of MPs to ever investigate, revealed “tremendous incompetence”. Every Prime Minister since 2016, including the incumbent Keir Starmer, has completely failed in this regard.
Deliberate failures have led to concerns expressed by the European Commission’s Head of Human Rights, High Court and Court of Appeal Judges and a case review by the United Nations. Moreover, a recent terrorism review evidenced the failings if ignored, would likely lead to future atrocities including school massacres. The Government has since taken steps to cover this up.
Through this site, with clearly one of the UK’s biggest ever scandals being covered up by Parliament and the Media, you can follow our continuing journey to achieve justice, give power to protect back to parents and carers and ultimately make sure that school across the globe becomes a safe place for every child to be.
