Petition Require equal coverage of women’s achievements in the National Curriculum

Review the U.K. curriculum to include ideally 50-50 representation of female achievements. For example the KS2 curriculum only includes Amelia Earhart, Boudicca, Elizabeth I, Victoria from the female side. But on the male side there are much more. We can do better.

More details

Women hold up half the sky, making sure we celebrate and call out women’s achievements in KS1 and KS2 sets the foundations for the rest of the years. There are many successful, notable female scientists, rulers, thinkers who challenged/ ignored the patriarchal society they were in and followed their dreams. These provide the right role models for our children to take action to create the world they want to live in and to follow their own dreams and passions
