Rejected petition Make PSHE compulsory in every child's education in KS2-4 (10-16 year olds)

The current Government status states that PSHE (personal, social and health education) is un-statutory meaning that thousands of children across the UK receive either irregular PSHE education delivered by non-specialists or none at all.
