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 exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. For example, you could ask the Government to change the national curriculum so that children can choose a set number of subjects to study, rather than having to study certain subjects.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
