@CityMayorLeic Well done for supporting schools, teachers, and for keeping them safe. I hope the same extends to not fining parents if their school does decide to open? #CloseAllSchools

Things are going from very bad to much worse.

So it looks like the citizens of the U.K. are organising the #nationallockdown themselves. Our kid’s school now closed this week. When will our Prime Minister actually take the lead rather than let events make decisions inevitable. #sackboris

Everyone seems to agree (except our government) that schools are not safe right now. Please don’t penalise parents with fines for trying to protect their families. Take a stand like other councils have. @LeicesterCouncl @LeicsCountyHall

@PlymouthCouncil Well done for taking a stand and supporting teachers, parents, and the community against unsafe schools. #CloseTheSchools

@mancunianmedic If someone smokes in a classroom, even if they're smoking 2m away, in an enclosed space the smoke will still spread around the room & linger in the air

Is that a smoke-free classroom?

If not, then why would it be covid secure, given it's an airborne virus?

[Leicestermum @Leicestermum1]

The scientists, teaching unions etc agree that school isn’t safe at the moment. @MayorLeicester please do not fine parents who are just trying to protect their families.

“children need the structure of schools!”

they also need living parents and teachers #CloseSchoolsNOW

@CityMayorLeic Our schools should switch to remote learning now! Or are our kids & teachers less important than those in London? #CloseTheSchoolsNow

[Leicestermum @Leicestermum1]

@GavinWilliamson Why are our primary schools in Leicester open, we’re in T4 too? #CloseTheSchoolsNow

[Leicestermum @Leicestermum1]

The schools need to switch to remote learning whilst cases are so high and the new variant is out of control. #CloseTheSchoolsNow
