This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

The Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992, which apply to all workplaces, including schools, set out minimum temperature requirements. They require that temperatures shall be “reasonable”, defined as "normally at least 16°C" (60°F).

If you would like a change to this temperature, you could start a new petition about that.
