Let Educational staff get tested for the virus after the NHS staff.
Allow educational workers to be tested for SAR-CoV-19 (Covid-19) virus after the NHS.
This will allow some reassurance to the public and educational workers of not transmitting the virus and allowing schools to resume as much service providing support, support for key workers, educational packs and meals as much as possible during this time of need.
