Rejected petition To Kill a Mockingbird
More details
We petition the government to actively encourage the reading in schools of great twentieth century literature from a range of countries. Such books, written in English, have immense value to British children, in developing their understanding of issues which face and shape all humanity.
Please ensure that such books from non British authors e.g. Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird, are explicitly on the KS4 English syllabi.
