Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action. We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. You could start a new petition explaining clearly what specific action you would like the Government or Parliament to take.

Background
Help support families who are already having a difficult time having to attend medical appointments or create a system where parents are given appointments out of school hours. If parents don't go to appointments this could be seen as neglect.
