TeamSOS - supporting schools to respond to COVID-19 and ensure continued education

学校是更广泛经济的关键-根据财政大臣Rishi Sunak的说法，在COVID-19封锁期间关闭学校本身对英国经济的影响与2008年全球金融危机的影响一样灾难性。通过提高学校对疑似和确诊的COVID-19感染的反应速度和效率，将有可能减少需要自我隔离的工作人员和学生的人数。目前，许多学校都将全年组的泡泡送回家，导致大量家长由于需要照顾孩子和支持家庭学习而无法正常工作。我们建议创建一个集成的应急响应应用程序，这将使学校应对COVID-19、紧急情况和其他情况的能力发生重大变化。我们将在领先的多学院信托基金的试验中证明和量化TeamSOS应用程序的影响。

Schools are key to the wider economy - according to Chancellor of the Exchequer Rishi Sunak school closures over the COVID-19 lockdown period have in their own right been as disastrous for the UK's economy as the impact of the global financial crisis of 2008\.By improving the speed and efficacy of schools' responses to suspected and diagnosed COVID-19 infections, it will be possible to reduce the number of staff and pupils who are required to self-isolate. Many schools are currently sending entire year group bubbles home, resulting in large numbers of parents being unable to work as normal due to the need for childcare and support for home learning.We propose to create an integrated emergency response app which will result in a step change in schools' ability to respond to COVID-19, emergencies and other situations. We will evidence and quantify the impact of the TeamSOS app in trials with a leading Multi-Academy Trust.
