More details
If you find out about most entrepreneur Billionaires, they started out by selling items in school and other places, which I think is a skill that is important in life especially in finance which would tie in with the school curriculum. It would teach children how to sell, make profits, give shares, negotiation skills and saving money. This rule would help assist children when calculating math's equations and other skills throughout the curriculum in other subjects

Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
Decisions about whether to permit students to sell goods on school property are a matter for individual schools, not the UK Government or Parliament.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
