What does this mean exactly?

EWO here. I highly doubt we will be rushing into fining anyone. But those who don't wish to send their children back do need to communicate properly with the school and follow the correct procedures. They can also withdraw their children for home education. It's not the law to send your child to school. It's the law to make sure your child is in receipt of a full time
Education.

I'm not entirely sure. I believe it's a judicial review. It will take time. It's a chink of hope I suppose. I will try and find out more and come back

Hi all

We're just moving this thread over to our petitions topic.

Also, the law is exactly the same as before. Fines are not new. Nothing, NOTHING, has actually changed. At all.

Of course but I would argue that we are in unpresidented times. It's not like these parents are keeping.kids off to go on holiday. The vast majority are genuinely concerned for their children, themselves and their family.

Why are these petitions always embarrassingly hysterical and hyperbolic?

The grammar is always shit too. Hmm

I don't know. Don't shoot the messenger and all that. Just letting people know what I saw on the boycott unsafe schools Facebook page
