This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

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

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you want content on Israel and Palestine to be added to the national curriculum, but we're not sure exactly how you want this to work.

The national curriculum sets out content that schools can or must teach students about, but it is up to schools how to teach this, and the Government does not moderate the way in which schools teach curriculum content. Ofsted already inspects services providing education for children of all ages.

Your petition also calls for any teaching about Israel and Palestine to include minimal reference to religion. but it's not clear how the Government could achieve this through the curriculum, or how schools could educate children about Israel and Palestine without reference to religion.

If you want to submit a new petition, you would need to provide your full name.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
