Rejected petition Make driving lessons a part of the optional school curriculum

These will allow students that are choosing to begin to drive once they turn 17 and have a provisional driving licence will allow them to complete driving lessons funded by schools. This will help students to save their money for once their tests have been passed so they can buy their own vehicle.

More details

This should not have to include motorbikes/quadbikes.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

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

The decision on whether to offer driving lessons to students or not, is one for individual schools, and not a decision for the UK Government or Parliament.

You could start a new petition calling for funding to be made available specifically for driving lessons if this is something you would like to see happen.

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