This petition was submitted during the 2019-2024 parliament
Rejected petition Financial Aid for any students who can't take part in online learning.
Government should provide financial aid for students who can't participate in online learning due to lack of technology or connection to the internet.
More details
Hundreds of thousands of students are being deprived of their education because they can't access the online classes or resources which are available. They have an equal right to education just like all other students in the UK and financial aid would help them get the education they deserve.
