All UK schools to shut on a bank holiday
It should be mandatory for schools to shut on a bank holding and there should be no teaching on that day. This would mean that school will close like other shops in the UK.
This is because some schools close on a bank holiday but some do not. This would mean that teacher's children might not have to go to school but the teacher might. This would mean that the teacher could not look after they child. Also, lots of shops close so they employees would get the day off. Why should some teachers also not get the day off.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We understand that you are concerned about schools opening on bank holidays, but state schools already close on bank holidays, and the Government isn't responsible for the opening of private schools.
