Rejected petition Increase pay of Nursery nurses/practitioners to reflect the responsobilities

Nursery Nurses (lvl 3) are under a great deal of pressure and stress from caring for and educating pre-school children. The level of constant paperwork is very demanding and workers are paid the minimum possible amount which does not reflect the demands of employers and government departments.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

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

This petition has been rejected because it is about a matter which the UK Government or Parliament is not responsible for.

The level of pay for nursery nurses who are not employees of the Government is a matter for the businesses that employ them. You could start a new petition asking Parliament or Government to set a higher minimum wage for nursery nurses.

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