Supply teachers should get furlough payment

Petition Details

Approve a support scheme for supply or teachers who's fixed term ended.

Additional Information

Teachers are the valuable key workers who are contributing towards children's education. Though supply teachers are working through agencies, due to schools closures they will not be able to secure work until February half term. So the Government should support agency teachers with payment similar to furlough scheme.
