We can't publish petitions when the request is something that's already happening or something that has been announced since you started your petition.
We think your petition is covered by Government or Parliament action already. If you'd like something else, you could start a new petition clearly explaining what it is.
The UK Government already provides significantly more than £50 million in foreign aid to support education in lower income countries. In 2020 the Government allocated £545 million of foreign aid to education.

We could accept a petition calling on the Government to increase foreign aid spending on education, if that's what you want to happen.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
