Petition Coding, Programming and Software Creation Compulsory in School

More details

As the world becomes more reliant of technology we must equip our children in the best manner we can.

There are a number of subjects that are compulsory at primary and secondary school, the signatories of this E-Petition believe that coding, programming and software creation should also be a compulsory subject under the name 'Computer Programming'.

If we don't rise to the challenge we will be left behind other global competitors in the US, China and Japan.
