Let parents decide if children attend Secondary school they risk spreading Covid

Rejected 13 signatures

What the petition asks

To debate the above question in Parliament. Parents working at home due to national advice now face the risk of Covid19 because their children must attend school.I understand the need for education to continue but the risk of catching Covid through staying at home as advised byHM Government.

I'm a home based worker and have adhered to national and local rules as have millions of people. I now face the risk of Covid as my daughter is in a class of 32, no face mask and no social distancing. The R rate in schools is increasing.If I don't send her into school I will be fined. What choice do I have?
