ESSA says:

1) We want to work with teachers to to make a better atmosphere in our learning environments

Students, teachers, experts and ministers are increasingly concerned that many students and teachers have poor working relationships. ESSA believes that good teacher-pupil relationships are beneficial to everyone, and allow students to learn better from teachers who are teaching better. Sign our petition if you agree. We will be delivering this to teaching union representatives and education experts.

2) We do not believe that students should be legally required to stay in education or training until 18

The Education and Skills Bill in Parliament at the moment says that students will have to stay in education or training until 18 or face criminal sanctions and fines. ESSA believes that students can choose for themselves, and that criminilising and fining young adults who do not stay in education or training is morally wrong. We also believe that the Government ignored students' voices when making this policy. Sign our petition to support our campaign to get this Bill changed! We will be delivering this petition to a number of Members of the House of Commons and the House of Lords, and the Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families.

Remember: the strength of petitions is in the number of people that sign them.  Please support us in our beliefs and get YOUR voice heard."
