Stop the government introducing the EBACC without including Arts subjects.

What the petition asks
The government want 90% of students to study the EBacc. If schools do not comply they will not be able to access a 'good' from Ofsted. The EBacc includes Maths, Sciences, English, Humanities, MFL, but NO Arts. If this goes ahead, Arts subjects such as Music and Art will most likely disappear
