Open all schools in Scotland
Take into consideration the huge impact the closure of schools is having on our children’s mental well-being. Get all children back to school in March in line with the UK Government proposal.
Our children are doing their best with home schooling whilst facing many challenges which have been highlighted since the beginning of this 3rd Lockdown. On speaking with many children from both Primary age & Secondary age it is apparent they are now beginning to feel the effects of helplessness & loneliness, Anxiety levels are increasing across all ages and I feel the Government need to act before this becomes a mental health epidemic in itself.
