Petition Action

Introduce E-sports into the National curriculum as a part of Physical education.

Petition Details

Many children around the U.K are disengaged from Physical Education. This is mainly due to the tremendous amount of effort it takes and this can leave less physically active children feeling useless and being discriminated against.

Additional Information

There have been many studies showcasing the benefits, to the mind, that video games give. These benefits include: decision-making skills,
better hand eye co-ordination and they can help with stress and depression. Links to evidence are included below.
