This website allows students of upper secondary school age to post comments about students. Many of these comments are of a personal or sexual nature. Other visitors can say if they agree or disagree with the comments.The site is a vehicle for cyberbullying. The UK Government knows about this but so far has proved ineffective in getting it shut down - the site is hosted in Holland. Will you help to bring this issue more strongly to the attention of the Department for Education? If so, please sign the e-petition which can be found at epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/23177
Thank you

Done! This is a hideous website - if you don't know it have a look, you'll be horrified.

Just signed up. I thought it had been closed down already, but it seems to have re-emerged somewhere else. This is really nasty. Please sign the petition!

Campaigner - maybe you should post this in Secondary Education as well. The website says you have to be 18 to enter, but obviously all the users are under 18.

Done -This website has been infamous for some while and there was a thread about it last year.

I hope the petition attracts enough support and is successful.

wimpykid thanks for your advice - have done so. Will contact Michael Gove when we have 200 signatures.
