Rejected petition Close all private schools as well as the state and grammar schools in the UK.

Rejected on 16 March 2020

Temporarily close down all the private schools as well the grammar and state schools because it can be seen as unfair to only close down one type of school as we are all facing the same problem and taking the same exams almost all of the time.

we would appreciate if the government would consider temporarily closing down all the private, state and grammar schools in the UK as people are not able to concentrate in the lessons and many students are slowly starting to go back to their homes overseas.
