We’re waiting for a new Petitions Committee
Petitions had to stop because of the recent general election. Once a new Petitions Committee is set up by the House of Commons, petitions will start again.

Rejected petition Vaccinate teachers as a priority to allow children safely back to school.
Please vaccinate all teachers and school workers as a priority to reduce the risk of Covid-19 to teaching staff and children.
More details
There is no clear plan from the government on how to get out of our current lockdown. The NEU advised teachers that attending their work place is currently unsafe.
Home schooling is taking its toll on children’s health: both physical and mental. So far free school meals provision has been inadequate.
Help our children return to school safely by prioritising all teachers, education and school staff for the Covid-19 vaccine.
