GMB Write to DfE with Concerns on Bubble Mixing
GMB has written to the Department for Education over revisions made to the guidance for schools during the pandemic.
The changes were made without consultation or update to any risk assessment to take into account the impact on school support staff, and appears to contradict previous guidance on cross-contamination between bubbles. Given the tenuous situation on the ground in schools, and impending further opening the government have announced is planned for March, GMB are requesting an urgent meeting to address this issue with the department.
