Children with health conditions to be allowed to homeschool

I feel that it would be reasonable for children with health conditions which make them more vulnerable to the effects of covid to be supported to complete their school work from home.

Why the contribution is important

This would reduce the likelihood of exacerbations of asthma, which can occur as a result of response to viral infections. Catching a cold and suffering an exacerbation of asthma symptoms then leaves a person more vulnerable when another virus comes along. By allowing these clinically vulnerable children to work at home where possible, class sizes would be slightly smaller allowing social distancing to become more achievable.

    I think those children of the people that were shielding should also be allowed to be homeschooled with support from the school to allow the curriculum to be followed. Remote check in with the teacher could be utilised as well to try and keep the connection with the school and even the class
