Rejected petition Make masks mandatory during class in the UK.

Make masks mandatory during class in secondary school. People are getting cases in different years and there are lots of ways to be in contact with them. Wearing masks during class period is the most effective way of not spreading it.

More details

There has been a covid case in another year - 8. I am in year 11 and have my PPEs in less than two months including my whole year. This can affect whether we can go to sixth form. The school going on lockdown will affect our learning and preparation since we won’t have a proper learning environment. Many of us have higher risk family members or are higher risk ourselves.
