Start online classes in UK because of the COVID-19

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Start online classes , so that students could have classes online and stay safe from the COVID-19

Because lots of students on Coventry university I know are worried and scared to go to class because of the virus it will be great if online classes started

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

Decisions about how to run classes are a matter for individual educational institutions.

We have published two petitions calling for the Government to close educational institutions.

One petition calls for schools/colleges to be closed for an appropriate amount of time: Close Schools/Colleges down for an appropriate amount of time amidst COVID19.

One petition calls for universities to be closed for an appropriate amount of time: Close all universities down for an appropriate amount of time amidst COVID-19
