Live cctv access of preschool classrooms to parents

The Issue

Child safety at the very least is the priority for every parent sending their tender ones to school and daycare. We do see some instances where children are left unattended, compromising on their security. 

 One solution that I could think of is the right to CCTV access to the parents. In our neighborhood in India, we could not find a single school that provides live CCTV access to see our kids. The reason cited by all the schools that we enquired is privacy of the teachers! This mindset has to change. There could be workarounds to hold up the privacy of teachers when they want to dance around for the kids and they wish not to show up in the camera. There could be teacher's only zone, say in the dance activity room, which is hidden from the view of camera or other AI solutions that fades the images of adults, but that may be a solution in future. No reason is too dear to hold against child safety today and now.

The question is  'Do we want hapless children and helpless parents?' Please vote for transparency in view of child safety.

Parents would deeply appreciate if the school management and the teachers (who may also be parents themselves) join us in this cause to vote for an enforcement for this much needed cause. No if's and but's please.

This is a plea. Let no child suffer. May parents know the child is safe every moment. Many children of this age group are neither very articulative nor can they be trained to express. This will be a burden at this age. You will all agree that they deserve to live carefree and in the present moment. So please support and then share the cause.

We are very hopeful this urgent need is enforced with immediate effect. Let us all join and make this happen. Let us be the voice for the tender ones.
