I work in Education. The place I work in is a small unit for kids struggling to cope, so our numbers are low so it’s easier to social distance, sanitise etc. In larger schools it is more difficult my daughter works in a 6th form College and she says it’s difficult moving around the place ok in classrooms, but although people are supposed to wear face coverings many students don’t. Also because they travel from all over the area quite a distance at times the public transport is over crowded as are places like the local train station platforms. When I drive home from work I see groups of kids from local secondary schools walking home they are not social distancing. It’s not a surprise that there have been infections. At Uni the students are meant to stay in their rooms do their on line lessons and then not socialise. Not a chance of that happening. That’s not why people go to uni,well not most anyway! It’s a farce to pretend that this is what students are doing. Again Social distancing will be the last thing on their minds after pouring copious amounts of alcohol down their necks.
