Introduce Romanian Language GCSE and A-Level Qualifications in the UK
We wish to see the Government advocate for, and encourage, the approval of Romanian Language GCSE and A-Level qualifications. Particularly, the Government should provide support in liaising with schools and exam boards to provide a comprehensive report on the demand for such qualifications.
Over the past decade, many Romanians have moved to the UK. The 2021 Census shows 472,000 Romanian speakers in England and Wales. Many Romanians intend to settle in the UK for the foreseeable future, and have their children attending school in the UK. It is only natural to request formal teaching support for the preservation and perfection of the language abilities of these children, encouraging reading, writing, and speaking excellence.
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:
We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.
It is for schools to decide which languages they teach as part of their curriculum, and for exam boards to consider which languages have sufficient demand for a GCSE or A Level to be made available.
