Rejected petition Compulsory Citizenship GCSE in England & Wales High Schools

More details

We believe that Citizenship is so important that, like English & Maths, it should be made into a compulsory GSCE in maintained schools in England & Wales.

We need to produce young people who are capable of engaging in society, voting and making a difference.
