Rejected petition School Hours vs Parliament Hours

More details

Rather than seek to extend children's school hours which has not been shown to succeed in societies similar to the UK, there should be a referendum debating whether MPs should instead have parliamentary recesses in line with holidays available to UK industry.
Class sizes should be reduced and the teaching profession supported in order to deliver better teaching to smaller classes.
