Why this petition matters

Started by Kaley Riley

As we face yet another National Lockdown, with the movement from face to face learning for all, to remote for all bar eligible 'vulnerable' students and those whose parents are categorised as Key Workers, children with lack of Internet access, sufficient electronic devices for the whole household and other factors, will face disadvantage to their more privileged peers.

A way to combat this issue, would be to provide a terrestrial channel on aerial TV as, even though many do not have access to the Internet or devices such as tablets or computers/laptops, my assumption is that many more do have access to televisions and terrestrial channels.

The government can draw on 'on the ground' teachers to provide lessons, which I am positive many educators would happily step up to do (myself being one of them).

This will support in preventing the gap widening, and to support our most vulnerable children in accessing their viral education.

 

Please consider this.
