Rejected petition Add school holidays for important cultural or religious events for pupils.

In religious aspects, festivals and cultural events have been a way to celebrate a religion. Therefore, students who believe in religions that have festivals and events for people to cherish the religion should have time off school to be able to embrace themselves fully into the religious experience

More details

I think religious festivals is a good time for pupils to celebrate with their family. Therefore I hope that sometime later I could celebrate these festivals at home with my own family as well.

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

School governing bodies are responsible for setting term dates, within the framework set out by the local council.

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