It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

We are sorry to hear about your difficulties finding a suitable school for your son, but we can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.

Local education provision is the responsibility of your local authority, not the UK Government or Parliament.
