Rejected petition To allow students with demands to wear blazers, to be able to take them off.

To allow schoolchildren with demands to wear blazers, to be allowed to remove them, as so they don’t overheat. Frankly, I think it’s ridiculous that some children are forced to wear blazers even at the most scorching temperatures.

More details

As so students don’t get too hot as it could stop them from learning as well.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

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

Decisions about uniform are a matter for individual schools, not the UK Government or Parliament. Government guidance "strongly recommends" that schools "consider how comfortable the proposed uniform will be for pupils" and "take a sensible approach to allow for exceptions to be made during extreme weather".
