The DfE have published guidance on reducing the spread of illness this Winter. Much of it focusses on things like handwashing & catching sneezes which WON’T stop airborne illnesses spreading. BUT I’m pleased to see a whole section on VENTILATION, CO2 MONITORING & AIR FILTERS.

🌟GOOD NEWS🌟 The @educationgovuk has published updated guidance for educational settings advising how to reduce illness in their setting/school. It echoes @LongCovidKids calls to: MONITOR, FILTER, VENTILATE. So can we all start doing this? #EduTwitter? educationhub.blog.gov.uk/2025/10/reduci…
