Rejected petition School uniform sizing for older children!

We as parents, especially August time of year, have the task of getting school uniform for our college aged children, mostly teenagers! We have various school rules to try & comply with. So why do the manufacturers of school clothing seem to stop at the age of 17/18 years of age

More details

I would like manufacturers to look at their sizing, my children are in adult clothing, so let's give the option for bigger sizing for our teenagers! It needs to be go further than an age 17!

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

Petitions must call for a specific action that the UK Government or House of Commons is responsible for.

Decisions about what sizes of school uniforms to manufacture are a matter for individual clothes manufacturers, not the Government or House of Commons.

As a result it is not possible for the Government or House of Commons to take the action you have requested.

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