Rejected petition Make masks mandatory in UK schools (Secondary, College and University).

Masks should be made mandatory in schools. If students can not afford to buy masks, schools should use their DA funding to provide them or students can make their own masks.

More details

Gradually schools will need to open wider in September, so children and teachers are bound to be in school finding social distancing difficult. It is better to be safe and cautious now, doing everything we can to prevent a second wave.
