Parents slam school after forking out £22 for kids to avoid 'inhumane' toilet rules

Parents have slammed an "inhumane" toilet policy at a school - and in a desperate attempt some are paying £22 out to get their children a special loo pass.

Marine Academy Plymouth confirmed it is school policy for pupils to be banned from using the toilets during lessons and instead they should use the time before school, during free blocks, break times, lunch times and after school to go.

If there is a "medical necessity" and there are other times where cases are discussed with parents "to ensure the best support plan is in place", which may result in a toilet pass, reports Plymouth Live.
