Rejected petition Remove the need for handwritten work from year five upwards.

I'm a year 6 pupil and I don't like doing my work by hand. I understand that handwriting develops motor skills but for some people it is quicker to do it online. Also, by the time you are in year 5, I believe that you should have the option to do it on a device because you have used your motor skills for all your work previously and I think that that is all the time you need to develop your motor skills. When I spoke to my teacher about it they said it was a requirement to do the work by hand.
