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 school closures are a matter for individual schools and local authorities, not the UK Government or Parliament.

We could accept a petition calling on the Government to make 21 November a bank holiday, as the Government is responsible for designating bank holidays, on which schools also close.
