One of my g.daughters is year 11 (GCSE''s next summer). Her Dad was in the shielding catogories for multiple conditions, and is the stay-at-home parent, he was trying to get all his school aged children (and his wife) now to change clothes, etc as the return home.
The school that one is at sent notices saying that ALL uniform must be put on clean each day, including blazer. My daughter contacted them pointing out that blazers are expensive and they would then need to purchase a second one, just for a few months. The school has now agreed that the blazer and her tie can be left at the school, to be worn -and just taken home for washing at weekends.
Good, helpful solution all around.
However, do think people should look at government figures for hospitalisation and deaths from this virus at present. - extremely low an flattened. Obviously, the graph for positive tests are rising as more people have such tests.
