Make Road Traffic Safety a mandatory part of the National Curriculum

Petition Details

I petition that the Department of Education includes Road Safety awareness as a mandatory part of the National Curriculum. There are statistics suggesting a disproportionate number of young people are either killed, sustain life changing injuries or are seriously hurt on the roads.

Additional Information

I believe that Road Safety is a vital part of every child’s education, but teaching it currently seems to be optional. As already stated, there is a high volume of road traffic accidents which can result in devastating consequences. I believe that our education system has a responsibility to protect lives, inform young people about inherent dangers especially given the distraction of mobile phones. Some 6th Formers can drive to school and I wish to see greater emphasis on ensuring their safety.
