Petition Make all subjects optional at GCSE level

We don't think students should be required to take any specific subjects - such as English, maths and science - at GCSE. Students should get to choose what subjects they study.

More details

Not everyone will need the subjects that are currently compulsory for their future, so these should not be mandatory.
