My school has no ppe, we have a cleaner wiping touch points all through the day. We have antibacterial hand-wash and sanitiser, but it still isn't compulsory for us to wear masks/face shields. Two weeks in to us starting back and I'm off sick waiting for a home test and I've been trying to get hold of one for the past 2 days and all I am getting is this. Come back later, what when I'm calling an ambulance or dead. So much for having key workers as a priority. University lecturers are making students wear masks and so are they but us teachers are being completely forgotten. If you want your children to have an education, you need to protect and look after the teachers! Boris you have failed me!

Or maybe their advisors like dr jenny harries said the evidence points to what's in place working. Ie desks facing forward. That was her rationale as to why masks or screens were not necessary

Children’s desks are facing forward but they turn around to talk when eating at lunch and to chat to their friends. They certainly don’t keep their head facing forwards all day.

Jenny Harries also said that children don’t try to share lunches to justify why lunchboxes could be sent to school in the June wider reopening of schools but not pencil cases. She’s very out of touch with children’s behaviour based on this comment.
