Rejected petition Close all schools and educational settings to prevent COVID-19 spreading.

Close all educational settings including private and non private to keep all children, teachers, parents safe.

More details

By closing educational settings mental health would increase for the better as people would be less worried and would be more in control by being at home. Schools can put in place online services and tools to support children who can’t attend school. Just like every other country closing schools would benefit us all - I’m sure you would agree if you had young kids. Keep them home and safe.
