NOT TO REOPEN SCHOOL ON 1ST JUNE AND OPEN SCHOOL AFTER SUMMER HOLIDAYS BREAK

Rejected 12 signatures

What the petition asks

the parliament should not open any school in UK 1st of June and all school should remain closed untill summer brake and only re open school if we go down below the yellow light infection rate
We as a country have delayed to take action early for covid-19 due to this we have be in very high risks and now opening school on 1st of June might not be safe for the children ie parents and this could make the infection rate go higher and can spike a second padamic we are still on phase one its time for the government to listen to the public
