Close down schools and start teaching online classes like the rest of the world.

Rejected 19 signatures

What the petition asks

We want the government to shut down schools and start teaching the students online. We do not feel comfortable with sending our children to school regardless of their health. Some students are very ill and can’t even get out of bed, and the government still want us to send our children.

Parents are completely against the idea of sending our children to school due to current conditions. We receive reports that classes are being sent home due to Covid cases which are being kept secret. How can we expect our children to be safe if the government aren’t taking any considerate measures and keeping us informed. The government are so confident in keeping our children safe, then why haven’t they sought to online methods which has been used in other countries such as the United States.
