Introduce basic UK political knowledge into secondary school curriculum
Introduce basic UK political knowledge into secondary school curriculum in PSHE / Citizenships and Values, with what each political party stands for, who people vote and why, and manifestos
There are many young people who are highly uninterested in British politics, which a lot of the time can lead to wasted votes as people either do not vote or they vote based on how much they like the leader's character.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
The key stage 3 and 4 curriculums for Citizenship already include teaching about democracy, government and how laws are made and upheld.

If you would like Politics to be a compulsory subject in its own right, or the content of the curriculum to change, you could start a petition about that.
