AUG: One school has been 100% Covid-free with 0 learning loss: Good masks indoors, zero 'mask breaks,' everyone eats outdoors even in bad weather, every room has a HEPA or CR-box and CO2 monitor, at 650 windows open, and at 800 students vacate the room. https://tasmaniantimes.com/2022/07/a-covid-free-school-heres-how/

‘parents wanted to “feel listened to and not blamed” during periods of non-attendance as opposed to “out of sight, out of mind”’

🚨 Do watch Newsnight tonight - BBC2 from 10:30pm 🚨

We have been invited to comment on a report (out tomorrow) on homeschooling.

One of our families has been interviewed and we have issued a statement.

Don't call us #GhostChildren

It is linked to this:

🚨 #GhostChildren

There are children from high risk families (some with low / no immunity to #Covid) stuck perpetually at start of the pandemic.

Choices stark between:
#educationANDlives (both human rights)

#Mitigations in schools have gone.
Doors & windows CLOSED due to energy costs.

Families facing prosecutions
Childen without learning
Children unable to take exams

Our children are locked out of education.
We need #SafeSchools.

Please read (months in the making) 👇
