Rejected petition Children to have time back at school after covid19.
After covid 19, all children to return to there school classes for a minimum of 4 weeks and have time to see there friends and say goodbye. This is especially important for years 6 and 11 who will be moving on to other schools and education providers.
More details
Make sure our children get the normal adjustment time before educational transition. Especially children in year 6 and year 11. Not only will these children miss out on there exams but many will be missing school trips, camps, graduation days and proms. These are the things you take forward and remember for years to come. If school changes happen without transition time this could have a huge impact on many children and especially those children with additional needs.
