Petition Action

Provide free PCR tests for teachers weekly if schools are to remain open.

Petition Details

PCR tests should be made available freely to all teachers in the nation if schools are to remain open. Schools are high-risk workplaces and hundreds of households mixing together can't be contributing to reducing the spread of the virus. Teachers should have the opportunity to be tested every week.

Additional Information

Getting this pandemic under control and showing respect to our profession for exposing ourselves and our loved ones to a deadly virus, to provide our children with an education is their duty of care.
