Closed Ban schools from requiring students to take a modern foreign language GCSE

Closed on

Schools should not be able to force students to take modern foreign languages as a GCSE, it must be a option in all schools.

The Government should make modern foreign languages (MFL) optional for GCSE. Students should have the freedom to focus on subjects they're passionate about, reducing stress and promoting well-being. Offering choice in language learning can lead to more motivated students and better outcomes overall. Let's empower our youth to pursue their interests and strengths.
