We’re waiting for a new Petitions Committee

Petitions had to stop because of the recent general election. Once a new Petitions Committee is set up by the House of Commons, petitions will start again.

Closed petition Increase funding for teacher training & equipment to support left-handed pupils

As a left-hander, when I was at school, the school didn't have any left-handed books for writing or left-handed scissors for cutting, forcing me to use my right hand for the tasks. This can result in under-developed writing skills, and under-development in sports.

More details

I call for the Government to give more funding to schools so they can buy left-handed equipment, and fund improved training so teachers are equipped to fully support their left-handed pupils.
