Require school to watch PMQs every Wednesday at midday

What the petition asks

It is important for students at school to understand the skills of debate needed in parliament and understand politics and how parliament pass laws.

Why it was rejected

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

We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.

Decisions about what programmes children are shown at school are a matter for individual schools, not the UK Government or Parliament.
