Petition for kids of asylum seekers

A new petition signed by 264 Dutch school boards and managements asks the government not to evict kids of asylum seekers during the school year. The petition was also signed by around 600 teachers, 200 parents and 3000 kids. The petition asks to let kids of asylum seekers finish they school year before being deported. According to the petition, such deportations have an "unbelievably great impact" on the victims and the school community that is left behind.

Several educational organizations also support the initiative.
