Rejected petition Allow children in primary 7 and up repeat a year of school.

Rejected on 18 January 2021

There has been so much lost learning due to COVID 19 restrictions which has had a significant effect on our youths of today. Allowing them to repeat a year of school will ensure that children are getting a proper education.

Only the government can implement this and I feel that the education authority will endorse this. I hope that parents will back this idea as it will have a positive long term affect on our young people being ready for exams and to prepare for working in society.
