Close Colleges and School in tier 4 areas
Close schools and colleges in tier 4 areas
Because if individuals are not allowed to see others outside their household how is it equitable that children are sent to school at great risk to their health. Also, this new strain of covid is said to be more infectious amongst young people so they are even more at risk. Having schools and colleges open will only increase infection rate and also if everyone else in locked down then childcare will not stop carers from working as they can’t work.
