This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

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

We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.

There are no legal restrictions preventing parents from accessing nursery settings, so decisions about whether parents can access these settings is a matter for individual nurseries, not the UK Government or Parliament.

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