Petition Action

Make politics a compulsory subject in KS3/KS4 to improve political awareness and participation

Additional Information

The Government should make it compulsory to learn about politics (In depth) in KS3 and give them the option of taking a GCSE in politics in KS4. this would improve the knowledge of politics in the younger generation and increase political participation for under 18s. Also when they reach the age to vote they will understand what they are voting for, resulting in more people voting and a more legitimate government.
