Rejected petition Change the school curriculum to things you will actually use later in life.

I believe that subjects like pythagaros theorem and how to balance an equation are absolutely useless and a waste of valuable time for young people, i believe that if this was changed to subjects such as how to pay taxes, how to get a job, how to balance money etc would be much more effective.

More details

I strongly believe that changing these topics will lower the amount of teens failing gcses, becoming homeless and unemployed in the uk. I also believe that this will lower the amount of teen suicides as many teens cannot handle the stress of learning complicated topics that are absolutely useless to them in the long run.
