There were a lot of stories around July and August that the government had been told it must choose between reopening pubs and reopening schools as it looked llike only one of them could be done safely. They decided to reopen both and COVID cases started rising from the beginning of September. Well it was so obvious. The kids would be going to the boozer on the way home, infecting each other and taking the infections home ................And KILLING people. And all those infections at home would be taken to the clean schools and infecting everyone .................... And KILLING people. And the poor innocent pubs would be the sufferers, as rabidly infected children and parents come to the pubs and spread lethal germs ..................That are KILLING people. It was all so obvious. Will no one think of the Old and the Children? (Breaks down into copious weeping.) Rings Waitrose for another Kleenex order.

Shouldn't have be opened schools! Clearly don't have 4 school aged boys who's mental healths had gone through the floor. All the parents I know were at breaking point too. I’m only repeating the views of parents I know. None of the kids are back properly, my supervisor’s son was back two days before being sent home, was back another day before having to test and isolate after the lad he shares a desk with tested positive, and after being back another week the school was closed entirely after 17 positive tests amongst staff. There’s no childcare available, so her husband is risking his job by taking time off work. I’m afraid I’m with the public health officials who said it wasn’t safe, and continue to say it’s not safe.
What age?
My nephew, 1st year of GCSEs, has been at school all term so far, cases in other years in his school but not in his bubble. School continues, which it should, in my opinion, and this is in a high tier area.

Can’t be exactly sure, as I obviously don’t pry too much into my carer’s personal lives, but the supervisor’s son is 12, another young man whose Academy only reopened for one week and has remained closed is 14/15.

Makes you wonder if schools in different parts of the country are following the same guidelines.

Would be interesting to know if Academy sponsors have any discretion as they’re supposedly largely independent.

Makes you wonder what the teachers have been up to.

As the nephew of a retired teacher I feel obligated to point out it wasn't just teaching staff, it was kitchen and cleaners, along with at least one classroom assistant supporting a SEN student.

Unless I have missed a Survation Poll, those changes are incorrect.

I suppose it could cause apparent anomalies if they round the actual percentages and the changes separately?

General pattern of LD -> Tory repeated. I suspect this was driven by pro-EU Tories realising that the LDs are now the EU headbangers, after their vote for No Deal.
