Summary
Young people who have periods during school hours are sometimes denied access to toilets. We feel that this prevents young people from having a period with dignity, causing shame. We propose young people with periods, by law be given a right to access school toilets. We believe this is inconsistent with the right to dignity and basic human rights - as per the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child.
