This petition was submitted during the 2019-2024 parliament
Rejected petition Not making work placement year compulsory for graduation.
Cancel the work placement year from universities or at least not make it compulsory to do it in order to pass to the graduation year ( for universities who has it as a third compulsory year ).
More details
work searching process put us in a lot of pressure especially this year where the opportunities are already limited. So if the universities can make it not compulsory will give everyone the chance to do it or just start directly graduation year next September. The thing is to let the choice for students not universities.

Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
