🧵1/6 IF THE SCHOOLS CLOSE it's also on the parents & teachers that didn't SPEAK UP!! Those that left it to us FEW to ask for REAL mitigations. Those that didn't stand up for their vulnerable colleagues & show support-that couldn't be arsed wearing a mask to help them or the kids
2)those that didn't even master keeping windows open, those that pushed for concerts/singing & shows or didn't use their voices to challenge it & turned a blind eye when we told you this would happen
MITIGATIONS would've prevented RESTRICTIONS & CLOSURES
So if it does ITS ON YOU
3)For those that DID (parents & staff) have the courage to speak to Headteachers, (or indeed if you were one who spoke out) who raised concerns to DfE, SLT & MPs who emailed, tweeted & challenged thankyou! Those who tried hard in their schools to go beyond guidance & invested in
4) HEPAs or accepted them from us Thankyou. But especially to our children who wore masks in class when NO ONE else did, when they were brave in the face of their peers & understood the science YOU'RE LEGENDS!! I'm just sorry we weren't able to make school safe for you in 2021
5) Yes this is a failure first & foremost of government it's FIRMLY on them BUT make no mistake it's also on the silent ones who never spoke out to help. Why would they change it if they can get away with not hearing us?
Make sure you help now and shout for
#SafeEdForAll in 2022.
6) Oh & by the way if you're pulling your kids out early Or have done already TELL THE SCHOOL THE TRUTH don't cop out with "they're poorly" 1 family can be ignored saying 'schools not safe' 10 not so much, we can't all be fined, they can't ignore US ALL. Help make change please.

🧵69000 children But you're too busy enjoying afternoon tea to care Until it affects YOUR CHILD. Why are you OK letting them sing in class with no ventilation, no mitigations? You talk of mental health & what these kids have missed? Ha ALLOW ME to inform you what they've missed
Just UK nos: 69000 have long covid (ask them about their mental health)
112 are dead (you can't ask them)
12000 kids have been orphaned or lost a caregiver, thousands more are now acting as carers as their parents struggle with the disease. But you want to talk mental health? ...
Show me 1 kid who's been damaged as a result of swapping singing in a non ventilated room for something equally as exciting in a lesson plan. Do Percussion? Rhythm & clapping? How about use SIGN LANGUAGE to a song? You know that inclusivity you bang on about PUT IT INTO ACTION!

Ok I'm not allowed to know of ANY cases in my daughters class or how many are still missing(I took her out last wk when 6 were absent in her class, knowing cases were in school)kids coughing & not being sent home. So decided my voicemail on the absent line this morning will be...
"Good morning Nancy is STILL absent due to an infectious AIRBORNE virus swirling in her class, however if this is not the case feel free to correct me & I'll bring her in later" onus on them for absence. All I got.

This Silence is sinister.
Head has never spoken to me. Not once
Emailed in the end so it's there in black and white for a paper trail..... I'll let you know if I get a call.
