This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

The Government sets standards for food and drinks that are provided by schools but it is up to individual schools, not the Government or House of Commons, to decide whether to set any rules about what food and drink students can bring into school.

We could accept petitions calling on the Government to lift restrictions on schools from being able to serve squash, if that is something you would like to happen.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
