This petition is to raise awareness of school's inconsideration towards Computing students. We hope this will show schools that they cannot place ratings or rankings before the future and the quality of education for the students. Computing is a necessity for some so should be available.

We are starting this petition due to the difficult position we have been placed in by our school. We were refused our late GCSE option of Computing Science due to 'lack of staff'. However the truth behind this is that our school cares more about other subjects.

Being told this only a term away from actually starting said GCSEs made the matter worse and affected some students greatly. Despite us coming to terms with our situation, we want to make sure others do not have to go through same.

This happens all over the country and we need to do something about it.
