Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: November 2282
Description[?]:
A bill to reduce the age to which a child must remain in full time education from 18 to 16. In considering the Dada, child labour bill it occurred to the SD that children under 18, notably those in the 16 to 18 bracket should be free to seek employment, and ins ome cases full time employment. The fact is that as laudable and important as education is some children are not suited to formal education, and may be better suited to joining the workforce at 16. For such children, indeed for all children the most iportant skills they will obtain from their formal education are basic literacy and mathematical skill, social skills and some human and citizenship development. these are usually taught by the time a child is 16, and if they have not been they should. |
