Rejected petition Make children learn english as the first language before school age

Education is being waisted for English children because the teachers are to busy focusing on the children that dont speak the language. It should be a rule that children must speak English as their first language before applying for a school place, to keep education alive for the English students

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 what you mean by requiring children to speak English as a "first" language. You could start a new petition calling for children to have to demonstrate that they have a specific standard of English before they can be accepted at school.

You'll need to give your full name to start a petition.

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