Rejected petition To ensure holiday peak prices are lowered for state school teachers.

Teachers cannot take time off work during the term and if they could, young people would not be getting a quality education. But, this means they have to pay extortionate prices during peak times in order to go away. They have no other option; holiday firms and airlines must lower their peak prices.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

We're not sure whether you would like state school teachers to have a special entitlement to lower holiday costs, or whether you would like peak prices to be lowered for all.

Decisions about holiday prices are a matter for the individual companies concerned, not for the Government or Parliament. If you would like regulation to be introduced to achieve what you are asking for, you could start a petition asking for that.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
