Closed petition Offer weekly Covid-19 testing to all school staff

Closed on 25 July 2021

School staff of all schools, not just secondary schools, should be tested in line with key workers such as care workers and some NHS staff.

Although not on the front line in the same way as the NHS they still provide a vital role in this pandemic but appear to have been ignored. The science supports children of primary age being minimal risk, but surely under basic health and safety risk assessment, the government should do all it can to keep staff safe and implementing this simple measure.
