Petition Action

Teachers shouldn’t work without PPE due many children being asymptomatic

Petition Details

The government are telling teachers that they’re advised not to wear PPE or face masks in schools on return, however they should in public and on public transport. This needs reviewed because children are asymptomatic in many cases

Additional Information

Parliament should provide better guidance for keeping teachers safe and should advise schools to protect their teachers.

More guidance on secondary schools where children cannot have a single teacher all day due to the vast amount of different subjects they study.
