Add veganism to the national curriculum and require schools offer vegan meals

Closed 7,117 signatures

What the petition asks

Veganism should be added to the national curriculum so that children learn about veganism. I also believe that every, school, college or university should have vegan options so students are given a choice.
A Vegan diet is known to be good for the health and the environment. I strongly believe that children should be taught how food is produced and how its ends up on the plate this allows personal choice.

I believe this would be very beneficial in the education sector as students should be given a insight of where food comes from. Also I feel they should be given facts on the benefits a vegan diet has to health.
