What the petition asks
Recently sailing and windsurfing have been taken off the list of sports you can be marked on for GCSE and A level PE. Some people started this course unaware of this change.
Sailing and Windsurfing should be reinstated as you have to be physically fit to compete, you can race and it involves refining technique to do well. The UK is an island which mean there are plenty of places for young people to participate in these activities.
