Petition Action

Allow Students to choose whatever they want for their GCSE options.

Petition Details

Year 9 students choosing their GCSE options at Belper High School are unable to choose both Drama & Music as their subjects. There are three blocks, students must choose one subject from each block both Drama & Music are in the same block which means that you are unable to choose both of them.

Additional Information

Students with a dream of Acting and being able to play and instrument are unable to pursue their dreams. We want to take action and allow students to freely pick these subjects as the previous years have been able to choose both Drama & Music, this is unfair towards the current and next generation of students. This needs to be changed immediately and allow the current Year 9 Students to freely pick whatever they decide.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. Options which are available for students to take at GCSE are the responsibility of individual schools.
