A TEACHER and trade unionist has criticised the Scottish government for not developing a robust ventilation system in schools almost two years on into the pandemic.
Nuzhat Uthmani, of Scottish Teachers for Positive Change and Wellbeing (STPCW), said that it is “unfathomable” that, for a second winter, staff are having to keep doors and windows open and ask pupils to layer up.
She said that it is “shocking” that ministers are not investing in air-filtration units in schools to help keep them safer from Covid-19 spreading further.
