Rejected petition Test those responsible for Sats provision to ensure excellence in education.

With the testing of very young children I feel that it's important to ensure those responsible for the tests are adequately monitored so that we can better understand how they might improve.

More details

It's my intention to gauge the levels of competence in a variety of disciplines of Ofsted inspectors and senior staff, relevant ministers, the education department and multinational education publishers such as Pearson. The tests would be set by a cross section of the UK public and be published nationally. The tests would be across all subjects and look at academic acumen as well as emotional intelligence so that we could asses the skills base responsible for educational provision.

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

You could start a new petition asking the Government to change its education policy.

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