[3 of 6] The people implementing this on the ground need to be properly consulted. They’ll spot things and solve problems that can’t be seen from Whitehall.

[4 of 6] @BorisJohnson must now open up and build public confidence in plans for the wider opening of schools. Parents & educators are united in wanting the best for their children.

Parents need to be able to make informed choices.

[5 of 6] It’s simply not right to leave every school and community alone to work out how to implement this. We need practical support from the Government to make it happen as soon as possible.

[6 of 6] We want schools to open more widely as soon as it’s safely possible.

We need the Govt to change course, to engage & to put in place all the programmes & resources needed to get children back to school as soon as possible.
