This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We don't know exactly what you are asking for in this petition - is your petition calling for funding to be made available to parents or the school?

We also don't understand what "something" refers to in this sentence: "however for the school to do something he needs a full assessment"

We could accept a petition asking for a review into the funding of assessments for dyslexia and dyscalcula to ensure that pupils from low income families are not disadvantaged?

[MH] I find this unclear - I don't know exactly what the line "for the school to do something" refers to (presumably support of some sort?)
