Rejected petition Don't open schools in September unless it is safe to do so

With uncertainty about the Covid-19 situation this petition is to support the Welsh Parliament to make a decision about face to face school teaching based upon scientific evidence rather than pressure from lobby groups.

Why was this petition rejected?

There’s already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue, or if the Petitions Committee has considered one in the last year.

Another petition about not fully reopening schools until the main threat of covid-19 has truly abated is already collecting signatures: https://petitions.senedd.wales/petitions/200035

You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition
