Vaccinate all teachers, classroom assistants and other staff in special schools.

Rejected 17 signatures

What the petition asks

I want the NI assembly to treat offering vaccinations to all teachers, classroom assistants and other members of staff working in Special Schools as an urgent priority. With special schools remaining open, the safety of our pupils and wider school communities should be an urgent priority.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

Your petition is about something that the Northern Ireland Assembly is responsible for.

If you want to raise this issue you could contact your MLA, or raise it with the Northern Ireland Executive.
