Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

We understand you would like increased funding for schools to improve LGBT+ representation, but it's not clear if you want this funding to be used to help improve the number of LGBT+ teachers or school leaders, or for some other purpose.

If you want the Government to provide increased funding to schools to allow them to take a specific action or actions relating to support for LGBT+ students, you could start a petition about that.
