What the petition asks
Increase the amount of Creative Arts lessons.
It can boost the economy, improve mental health, and help with other parts of school e.g. exams/ peer pressure
Why it was rejected
It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.
We understand you're concerned about access to arts lessons, however it’s not clear whether you want more creative arts lessons to be delivered in schools, or to other groups through community programmes for example.
You could have a petition calling on the Government to make Art and Design, Music, and Drama compulsory subjects at Key Stages 4 and 5, if that is something you'd like to see happen.
