Petition Make Computer Science, Programming and AI mandatory in the national curriculum

I would like the Government to make Computer Science, Programming and AI mandatory subjects in the national curriculum, so all students are taught these subjects in school.

More details

I am a school student who is interested in Computer Science, Programming and AI but my school doesn't teach these topics. I believe young people who go to schools that don't teach these subjects are at a disadvantage as the future of work is changing to become more technology-based, and not understanding at least the basic fundamentals could put young people at a disadvantage in the future. The national curriculum should be changed to reflect this.
