Why was this petition rejected?
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 Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992, which apply to all workplaces, including schools, set out minimum temperature requirements. They require that temperatures shall be “reasonable”, defined as "normally at least 16°C" (60°F).
If you would like a change to this temperature, you could start a new petition about that.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
