Rejected petition Economic Literacy for the UK

More details

Our current education system does not teach us about the economic infrastructure and financial understanding, creating many economic illiterate people.

Most aspects of public, political and family life are heavily influenced by economic policy and the financial infrastructure.

Sign in order to for the government to create compulsory economic education in schools and promote economic education within adults.
