JUST Stop Oil protesters are trying to stir kids as young as 11 into action.

The eco-zealots need help in targeting schools for a new wave of mayhem — prompting accusations of “exploitation”.

A Sun on Sunday probe found a student-led faction is planning stunts at school assemblies and other large gatherings of youngsters.

One encrypted message on a Just Stop Oil group said: “Are you or do you know any secondary school students who are serious about climate action and want to help organise a long-term school strike?”

The message goes on: “We are also looking for supportive parents, teachers and scientists.”

It comes after Just Stop Oil activists caused chaos on the roads and at sporting events.

One group member told us: “Schools is next-level stuff. That would be incredible. It’s very, very exciting.”

However, one parent from Derby who has seen the messages said: “Just Stop Oil are now exploiting children. It’s a disgrace.”

Tory MP Nigel Mills added: “This is worrying. Schools need to take firm action to stop this.”

Just Stop Oil were approached for comment.
