Rejected petition Stop sending children home to isolate for 10 days

Stop sending children home to isolate every time they have been in close contact with someone who has tested positive for corona virus. The education of our children is being ruined and it is having a massive impact on their mental health.

More details

Children do not get seriously ill and the successful vaccination programme has helped to protect vulnerable people. Children are being sent home on a monthly basis, sometimes twice a month. It is having a huge impact on the education, mental health and future of our young people. Let them stay in school unless they are the one infected! Stop disrupting their learning.
