Rejected petition Mandatory classes regarding life immediately after school.

More details

Law - What laws might the pupils not be aware of? Things like self-employment law are particularly relevant now yet are largely unknown by the masses because people assume UK is the same as USA which it is very different from. Pedestrian law. Employee law. Heck, I'm using the wrong terminology because of this exact hole in the education system.

Finance - How to set up a bank account, common jargon, handling money or debt, how to rent or buy property, how to use a checkbook.

Simple things that are essential to daily life as a human being yet could be taught in maybe 10 or 20 hours across a year?
