| Message | On article one we believe that home schooling can be used alongside educational institutes and gives parents freedom of choice. However the children must still take the standardised tests that the rest of the country uses. Article 2 is the changing of a system that seems hypocritical. Why should private schools be heavily regulated but not higher education institutes. We would also like to create a fair playing field for the whole country instead of variations in different regions. |

| Message | We would have supported Article 3 alone but cannot support Articles 1 and 2. |
