Kid's being allowed to go to school late in the morning

Local schools to me are allowing children to go in at 10am tomorrow.

What do we all think about this? I'm on the fence, schools are shouting about absence/lateness/taking them out for holidays but on the other hand the kids may not see this again for a long time. My sisters kids are upset because both parents can't start work late so they have to go to school at usual time, it's unfair to put parents on the spot with this as well.

YABU - It's fine for schools to do this.
YANBU - I don't agree with it.

So numerous hospital wards, surgeries, fire stations, schools, banks, etc will be under staffed / unable to function until after 10
because suddenly millions of parents have childcare responsibilities.

Doesn't work like that.

I hate football

Schools can do what they like.
But next time my kids late and they send me a shitty text, I'll be popping in for a chat.
