Rejected petition Make Home education compulsory in all schools. Things like how to pay taxes etc

I am a year ten student, currently studying for my GCSES. I feel that it is important for us, and all students to know essential skills for further life. Things could include, How to pay Taxes, why you need to, how to get a mortgage etc. I feel like it should be down to schools as well as parents.

More details

I do understand that some schools already have this, but i feel like it would be unfair for them to get a headstart in life, above everyone else. It would be better if every one got taught these things.
