What the petition asks
I feel the 11+ exam isn’t a correct insight into a child’s academic ability as it is to early to tell. I call for a reform to make it more accessible to the public and overall provide a fairer education to our children.
Why it was rejected
It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We understand that you are concerned about the 11+ exam, but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.
In any case, students are not required to take the 11+ exam by the Government, and petitions must call for a specific action that the UK Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.
