I want all Olympic sports to be an option in gcse pe

Petition Details

I am a y11 gcse student in pe, I have been put at a massive disadvantage because my sport isn’t apart of the gcse pe choice; my sport is taekwondo. I think it’s only fair to have all Olympic sports to be an option for gcse pe to give all students an fair opportunity.

Additional Information

I am a y11 student wanting to make gcse pe fair by having all Olympic sports as an option, such as Taekwondo, karate and ice skating. There is a lot more. Every year students are told they can’t do there sport because it “isn’t good enough” to be on the curriculum, putting them in a difficult situation and potentially failing there pe gcse.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Individual schools are responsible for deciding what sports they offer for GCSE PE, not the UK Government or Parliament.

The Government's guidance for GCSE PE doesn't specify what sports students can or can't do. You can read the Government guidance here: assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/397567/GCSE__subject_content_for_PE.pdf
