I didn’t because they were unnecessary. Schools didn’t close. Many schools still had over 50% occupancy just with key workers and vulnerable children. There is no evidence that restricting children attending school helped whatsoever. As a school governor, there is an abundance of evidence that restricting access to school has had a very measurable impact to development of children and the impact is not academic as you might expect especially in KS1/KS2 but emotionally especially in KS1. The kids are just not equipped to cope with school.

If anything comes of any inquiry, it will be that in closing schools the negatives far outweighed any perceived benefit.
