Closed petition Scrap fines for families with vulnerable members that keep children from school
Closed on
Scrap fines/punitive measures and provide assistance for households with at risk and vulnerable members who are not willing to send their children to school due to Coronavirus transmission concerns.
The return of children to school in the upcoming term should not have to be a potentially life and death choice for their family. It is grossly unfair to consider punishing families with vulnerable members regarding the return of children to school. Other measures should be made available to the children of such families as they were when lockdown began such as remote learning. Please do the 'right thing'.
