Petition Action

Political education in schools.

Additional Information

Turnout is now on a major decrease and young people are increasingly feeling as if they are outside the system. Political Education aims to increase voter turnout by teaching young people how important it is to vote. It encourages them to take part in society and the decision making process at a local and national level. It should therefore be compulsory for schools to have some form of political education, whether through citizenship or as a separate lesson.
