Make masks compulsory in classrooms
I would like the government to make the wearing of masks compulsory in all UK schools, during the covid 19 pandemic, this is vital as social distancing in a school setting is impossible.
I feel it’s ridiculous that in all other inside settings masks are compulsory (supermarkets, shops, hairdressers) In schools social distancing is impossible, therefore I believe the virus has spread so rapidly since the return to school. If you want children to return to full time education then this is vital to achieve this.
