Uphold the Human Rights of all public sector employees and remove all unconscious bias training courses and materials from public institutions where the core ideology of the training is derived from Critical Race Theory.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

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

It is up to individual public sector bodies, not the Government or House of Commons, to decide whether and how to deliver training such as this.

We could accept a petition calling for the Government to review the delivery of unconscious bias training within public sector organisations, and publish guidance on how this should be conducted.

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