Reopening schools after a UK-wide imposed lockdown has been a source of concern for all involved – for pupils, parents and educators, keeping COVID-19 at bay is paramount.

As we move into our typical flu season, now more than ever it’s imperative that schools establish a rigorous cleaning and sanitising routine to keep pupils safe.

At the time of writing, 30 schools across the UK have been forced to close down again and 300 have sent pupils home after positive Coronavirus tests – so we must ask: were the previous safety measures enough?

Cleaning and re-cleaning surfaces and common touch-points is vital for keeping viruses at bay, but this rather monumental task requires planning, cooperation and effective products.

How Genesis Biosciences is helping schools improve safety

Dr Emma Saunders, General Manager – Europe, wrote for a recent article in Primary School Management Magazine that “establishing a thorough cleaning regime now is crucial for the safe return of pupils.”

At Genesis Biosciences, we are supporting education facilities in their quest to secure effective anti-viral products and incorporate them into their new cleansing schedule.

We have developed a unique anti-viral, anti-microbial, general purpose sanitiser that is proven to be effective against COVID-19 and is free from quats, chlorine and alcohol, and have begun supplying primary schools across the UK.

Educational institutes are under huge pressure to ensure their facilities are protected against COVID-19 while also maintaining day-to-day cleanliness. While it is inevitable that schools need chemicals to perform certain cleaning tasks, not all cleaning jobs call for harsh chemical solutions and there can be wider environmental and health implications for both children and workers if institutes are unaware of the alternative cleaning solutions available.

We have seen a huge increase in demand for our new Evogen Professional sanitiser and have supplied the product across the entirety of Europe since the beginning of March – but there is more to be done.

Schools across the world are trying hard not to disrupt more of pupils’ studies, but the stringent cleaning regimes and airtight safety measures this requires must be put into place – if not already – as soon as possible.
