Covid and lockdowns has impacted the economy whilst parents have to ensure their children are educated from home. Many parents have seen their income shrinking but their costs escalating. The government has a big drive to provide laptops for children at home. Many schools have opted to provide iPad's to the children in school which they get an educational discount on when they purchase it. The children are forced to use these even if they have a laptop or iPad of their own at home. They are required to take these iPad's to home and use in school but if the iPad is damaged, lost or stolen they force the parents to replace it with a new one. The school doesn't replace it themselves with their discount and a parent is forced to pay the full price for it. The education minister needs to ensure that the children's education needs are met whilst also ensuring that parents is not unfairly targeted with additional unnecessary costs. Apple's policy currently does not support parents in K-12 situations and is unfairly discriminatory. This needs to change immediately. Microsoft is doing the right thing by providing this discount. Let's change Apple's policy by standing together and demanding a change. Please sign this petition so that we can help thousands of students and parents and get the government to change this profiteering by Apple on parents.

As a Youth Delegate and 22 year old student who believes in a decent standard of education to be delivered in result of my own challenges of still being denied of an education from 2017 till now which is 4 years of lost provision which was unelected.  Which I am legally lawful entitled to Education. Like millions of SEN families and younge adults. Which have to face these fights each day. That's why I came up with the idea of (The Claudes SEN Law)  Which will be acknowledged in the UK ~ The United Kingdom and around the world #spreadtheword  My Goal is 10,000 signatures.. the deadline to support is June 10th 2021. (Please all support @a_claude_2020 and The Claudes SEN Law!!)

This is important because as students we feel like we are not being listened to.

Sex Education has always been treated as an unnecessary subject and is sometimes not even taught by professionals. We believe sex education is an important subject as it is the only subject that everyone will use in their life and we believe the best way to do this is to make it a compulsory GCSE subject.

It’s important for generation to be educated on the Kardashian’s life and family. We are the future of the world and must be educated.

This is extremely important as students are receiving grades based off not a full years worth of work. It is also crucial as this year has been damaging in mental health to the extent where students need a break until Covid is in a better place. This will also help keep down rising infections.

During this pandemic, international students are paying hefty university fees for their courses. They are unable to find any part time jobs to support their living and further education in the UK. Landlords and university accommodation are charging them full rent without considering the difficulties which the students are facing due to frequent lock downs and joblessness.

For the mental health of parents and young students everywhere the wellbeing of those being sent to school unnecessarily because parents can not maintain the 3 hours a day plus uploading to platforms. especially when they have more than one child. Children in Europe do not a have the same pressures at this age. Most do not attend school until age 7. There is no difference in their future wellbeing or education at a level and gcse ages. Parents are being told to send their children to school if they cannot meet the 3 hours a day target. This goes directly against the advice of the national lockdown and attempts to reduce the impact of covid 19.

These young adults are paying dead rent plus utilities costs electricity etc. For being home due to a National lockdown. They are going to have to eventually pay back the said fees for university yet they are paying for a service they will not be getting. So that includes rent for property’s that are empty. Yet still having to be payed.

Students are currently being hit by the triple whammy of still needing to pay rent and fees, not being able to work part time and having reduced access to hardship funds due to increased demand. As a result of this lots of students simply cannot afford the data and broadband which is now required in order to keep up with their studies. These factors further exacerbate the pre-existing attainment gap between disadvantaged and their advantaged counterparts in Higher and Further Education. According to research by the Office for Students, across the UK in the first term 18% of students had their ability to study affected by a lack of access to the internet, a figure which is higher for students with disabilities, students who are the first in their family to attend university, student parents and students of colour. It is therefore critical that free data and unlimited broadband is made available to students so that students don't suffer from 'digital poverty'. It is time to provide Free Data and Unlimited Broadband to Students.

All people have been impacted by the coronavirus. However, students have invested in their education and have not received adequate teaching or an adequate education in general. Students seem to be the forgotten generation. It is time for the government to step up and resolve this.

These unforeseen circumstance are placing parents/children under stress which in some cases is negatively impacting mental health.
