Petition Action

Stop the opening of schools until September to avoid a second peak

Petition Details

Do not open schools until the new academic year. This will prevent a second peak in the virus. And will stop children having to go back to school on a staggered schedule for a month. They will not catch up with education in this short time frame. It will cause them unnecessary stress.

Additional Information

As a chair of school governors I do not believe there is value in rushing pupils back to school for such a short time and feel it would be best to continue for this short time with home education. I also do not want to put any of my valued teacher and support staff at risk.
