Shut colleges/universities due to COVID-19 enabling students to distance learn.
College/university students, tutors and lecturers are all being put at risk of contracting/spreading COVID-19 unnecessarily. Tutors online teaching pay needs devising, students should be enabled to distance learn.
Many of us will live with those most vulnerable/at risk of COVID-19 virus.
Colleges/universities continuing - lacks consideration that tutors/students may need to use public transport - sitting in groups in classes risks spread of COVID-19 virus risking critical illness/death to household members.
We want our education and to keep up our attendance yet we do not want to put others at unnecessary risk.
The Government must consider enabling distance learning for all colleges/universities.
Pay for tutors home teaching needs devising.
Prevention is better than cause.
