Why regular school cleaning is essential
12th Jan 2021
As I’m sure you will know if you are reading this in the UK, we are in another national lockdown. Although most children are working from home, those who live with key workers are still in the classroom. Consequently, this means staff are also in schools looking after these children and continuing to give them their key education.
There are new rules in place within the schools to ensure social distancing standards are kept. This is great and will help prevent spread, however, it doesn’t the spread of germs contaminating surfaces once they land on them.
NOT SO FUN FACTS…
Did you know that one cough or sneeze can send 100,000 contagious germs into the air at speeds of 100mph? Imagine what 30 sneezes in one classroom can do? Therefore, it is vital and crucial that deep cleans are carried out daily, as germs can live on surfaces for up to 72 hours. We also know that germs spread from one person to another and with the classrooms only having so much space, it is more likely for it to happen.
This is why children, as lovely and wonderful as they are, are also key spreaders of germ whilst having no symptoms themselves or only very mild, they can pass their germs unknowingly to their elders who could be vulnerable and suffering from pre-existing health conditions. We’re now all aware of how potentially dangerous this can be to some people, so we’ve all been doing our part to keep our loved ones safe which has been so difficult at the same time.

“Ideal understood the gravity of the task at hand by ensuring to gain as much information as possible from not only Manchester Pride staff but other stakeholders on the site too. They took the initiative to arrange meetings and visits with key venues around The Village. This went a long way to putting people’s mind at ease before they undertook the task in the first year. There’s been a great amount of positive feedback in relation to the cleansing of the streets.”
