Rejected on

Make Canterbury academy boys where short

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.

Decisions about school uniforms at individual schools are a matter for the governing bodies for each school, not the UK Government or Parliament.
