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.
Petitions need to call on the UK Government or House of Commons to take a specific action.
We understand that you want the Government to change arrangements for schooling, but it's not clear exactly what changes you want the Government to make.
We have published the following petitions, some of which you might like to sign:
Require schools to adopt a part-time attendance rota while Covid-19 is a threat: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/551615
Require schools to support home learning during Covid-19 outbreak: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/334065
Suspend fines for school non-attendance during Covid-19 & allow parental choice: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/551740
If there is a specific action you want the Government to take that is not covered by the above you could start a new petition stating clearly how you want the Government to change current arrangements for schooling.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
