West Yorkshire Police rushed to the scene of pupils protesting outside a Leeds school following 'concerns about the behaviour'.
Police said they received calls at about 10.20am on Monday (February 27) raising concerns about demonstrators who were at the common outside the school grounds in Chapel Lane. Hundreds of pupils had been protesting the secondary school's new toilet policy, which has been implemented by the Gorse Academies Trust, for the second day following a protest on Friday.
The new policy requires that all but one of the toilets are locked during lesson time, and pupils have to get a note to enter the sole open toilet where a member of staff stands guard. Disgruntled parents and pupils are "disgusted" with the policy which they believe is "taking away their human rights".
