What the petition asks
Give us a day off because if England top the group and get to the World Cup round of 16, the kick off time here is at 1am on Monday 6th July which is a school night which makes the students tired if they had to go to school
To be able to let the students watch the game and show their country support. However if they had to go to school it would make them tired and distracted at school the next day
