This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.

Decisions about working hours are a matter for individuals and their employers, not the UK Government or Parliament.

Start school at 10am to help teenagers with tiredness: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/612113
