Closed petition Include uni lecturers/students in the priority groups for covid vaccinations

Closed on 30 May 2021

University lecturers/students should be added to the priority list for vaccination to enable a return to face to face learning, prevent isolation, protect their mental health and ensure that they are getting an education/ degree that is worth the money they are paying.

Students face a third term of blended learning, for some all learning is online. Many courses need practical study which is significantly reduced. No matter how well Uni's do this the quality of learning is greatly reduced. UK governments are really clear on the importance of children being in face to face education for learning, futures and mental health. Now this must be extended to uni students, stop isolating them, protect their mental health and provide the education they are paying for.
