This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

We understand you are concerned about school transition days, however Government guidance to schools allows these to go ahead subject to the completion of a risk assessment. It is then for individual schools to decide whether, and how, to run transition days in line with these requirements. You can find out more about this here: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/actions-for-schools-during-the-coronavirus-outbreak/schools-coronavirus-covid-19-operational-guidance#transitional-taster-and-open-days

We are therefore not sure what it is you would like the Government to do.

If there is a specific change you would like the Government to make to this guidance, you could start a petition about that.

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