We Support Teachers
Teachers are real heroes and they don't get to hear it enough.
End the attack on teachers, remove inflammatory and divisive content against teachers and allow for parents to speak up in support of those who worked tirelessly to ensure children were educated in 2020.
Why is this important?
On 9th December 2020 The Sun newspaper published a Comment piece by Rod Liddle entitled "Covid has made heroes of many of our frontline workers… but not teachers".
We, the undersigned, petition The Sun to remove this inflammatory "article" which neither accurately describes how teachers have behaved during the Global Pandemic, nor reflect how parents feel about the education their children have received since March 2020.
We also call on The Sun to allow for an opposing Comment piece to be written giving all the grateful parents a chance to show the readership how educating their children in 2020 would not have happened without the support of hard working teachers.
2020 was not an ideal year for anyone - berating an entire profession for
doing their best is unacceptable.
Teachers are real heroes, and they don't get to hear it enough.
