Student Rights

Free legal help for students, parents & caregivers

  • Call 0800 499 488

We help with problems with school rules, enrolments, fees, uniforms, truancy, bullying, disabilities, police, stand-downs, suspensions, etc!

You can call the free phone line above — or if reading a book is more your thing, you can browse our 140-page resource Problems at School online. You can also get a paper copy from Community Law.

The Student Rights Service is a programme of Community Law Wellington & Hutt Valley.
