This petition was submitted during the 2019-2024 parliament

Rejected petition Schools not to open for all children before isolation is lifted.

Schools are to remain open to key worker children and vulnerable children during the isolation phases and not to re-open to all children before the isolation is lifted.
2-4% is more children/staff and parents dying is too many. There is no social distancing in schools!

More details

I am a teacher and do not want a child to pass on the Covid19 without knowledge. I am a single parent why should I have to put myself at risk! Children do not social distance as soon as they return you will have 100’s of children mixing and passing on germs to other children and adults. I would also suggest anyone that dies as a result of this sues the government for all it has. Other countries haven’t so why should we. I economy / life. I choose LIFE!!!
