Petition Lower school leaving age

More details

The school leaving age is being raised to 18 in 2013, which will mean you will have to stay in the first year of sixth form, college or further education.

But this will mean that when you leave there will be more competition when trying to get a job. In classes, there will be more disruption which will result in lower grades. Also the classes will be overfilled so you won't be able to get the help you want.
so are mission is to kept the age as 16
