Rejected petition The schools for young kids shouldn't be compulsory during pandemic

The education should be available in virtual environment. Schools shouldn't be compulsory and parents shouldn't be forced to send their kids. Those who want to send their kids to school, should be able to send but those who are worried during this pandemic should have been offered virtual lessons.

Health of the human is more important than the education and the economy. Rising Covid-19 cases and lack of experience in dealing with virus is a major cause of worry within parents. It is not possible to maintain social distance and even though kids may not be showing symptoms but they could be carrier and can infect the vulnurables.
