Close schools from 4th Jan 2021 due to increase infection rate
Rejected

What the petition asks
Close all schools/colleagues and universities from 4th January 2021 until the corona infection rate is controlled
Due to the increased corona virus infection rate in recent days and fact that we have all sacrificed so much to country it is more logical to keep schools / colleagues / universities closed in England until infection rate is under control
