Petition Action

To stop using uniforms in schools. This is particularly for single parents.

Petition Details

I would like to stop the use of school uniforms. This is particularly for poorer, single parent families that may not be adle to afford uniforms.

Additional Information

I want to change this as my father was expelled from schools when he was a child for not being able to buy the uniform. I would like to ensure that no one else has their education taken away for just a lack of money.

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 whether to have a school uniform policy are a matter for individual schools, not the UK Government or Parliament.

We could accept a petition calling on the Government to prevent schools from being able to set a school uniform policy, if that's what you want to happen.

We have published the following petition, which you might like to sign:

Suspend school uniform for 12 months: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/621824
