What the petition asks
If you want to bring in the rules of more fines and court proceedings for taking children out of school, there needs to be a change in holiday companies prices during the school holidays
The reason families take their children out of school during term time is because they cant afford to go on holiday during the school holidays because the prices more than double
Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
