Rejected petition Delay the re-opening school to September in England.

As the Governent guidance does not ensure the safety of the children, their families and staff then we must not open until safe to do so. September opening is correct time to aim for.

More details

The Goverment has not done any modelling of their guidance, so they do not know it is safe. The guidance states staff do not need to protect themselves or the children. Social distancing is deemed necessary everywhere else except in schools. The Government must delay the start of schools and follow the other home nations lead on the timings.
