Compulsory deep sanitation for schools

Rejected 16 signatures

What the petition asks

To arrange a Compulsory deep cleaning for all schools irrespective of whether impacted by the COVID-19.

I have 2 children myself and it has always been the case they catch up with seasonal infections from the school. At this point of time, it is highly recommended to get all schools deeply sanitised for the sake of the children's health and safety.

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Since this petition was started, the UK Government announced that all schools would close from Friday 20 March until further notice.
