Rejected petition Michael Gove should no longer be the Secretary of State for Education

More details

A simple vote of no confidence from head teachers, school governors, teachers, teaching assistants, parents, students, and members of the general public.

This man is single handedly ruining the education system of this country in his attempts to transplant a rose-tinted, neo-Victorian private school model on to the modern schooling system, whilst both ignoring and attacking those who work within that profession. Mr Gove is an elected representative of the people and we, the people, elect to have him replaced.

Action: Michael Gove must be removed as Secretary of State for Education.
