Stop the Government’s plan to overhaul GCSE science to make triple mandatory.

Stop the Government’s plan to overhaul GCSE science to make triple mandatory. — 21 signatures. Status: rejected.

Petition background

To scrap the planned changes to GCSE science and to find other ways to prioritise scientific education without causing emotional or mental harm to non-scientifically-minded students.

Additional details

Many young people already feel let down by this government, and to see plans to make their time in secondary education needlessly more difficult only serves to worsen this situation. Many young people feel depressed or even suicidal from the workload already and making it heavier will not improve their academic ability, but only worsen their state of living and shorten their lives.
