Rejected petition GNU/Linux should be taught in schools.

More details

There is a blatant lack of GNU/Linux use and skills taught in places of education.

This petition is in place for FLOSS (Free / Libre open source software) to have a greater presence in an education system dominated by Microsoft and Apple proprietary Software.

Educational and monetary benefits will be seen as the software is free (GPL licensed and costs nothing) and will close the gap for GNU/Linux Professionals.
