Rejected petition All UK children should Redo current academic year

All children should repeat this school year.

This could then begin from their next year of education in September 2021.

More details

It’ll be extremely hard for children to go back to school in this current situation.
For starters, separation anxiety is likely to be huge, but they also won't be returning to school as they know it. It will be very traumatic for them. There is still the threat of the virus, and even young children are aware that it spreads when peeople mix. They are likely to sit there in fear throughout each day, wondering if they have picked it up and wondering if they will pass it on to their families
