Rejected petition Teachers to have 'Teachers Discounts' similar to NHS discount

For the hard work and long hours teachers put into their jobs, Teachers and teaching staff should have a 'Teacher Discount' similar to the NHS Discount, by recieving a card that allows them to enjoy discounts similar to NHS staff.

More details

Teachers work long hours, are dedicated to their jobs and especially during this pandemic, have been on the front line of it all. Teachers have played a major role in shaping lives. Teachers should be rewarded and made to feel appreciated for all their efforts.
Rewarding teachers with 'Teacher discount cards' will not only financially help teachers, but will make teachers feel recognised and appreciated for all that they do for the younger generation, similar to what NHS staff receive.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

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

Offering discounts to particular people is a matter for individual businesses, not the Government or House of Commons.

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