Throughout the pandemic I have tried to ignore Johnsons advice on my health, so I bought masks back in March, etc. I work in schools so not sure what I can do to ignore his advice this time.

Legally entitled to refuse to work in an unsafe setting.

NEU meeting is calling for the snowball effect of teachers to cite Sage findings that it is NOT safe to go back to school to their head teachers and to refuse to go back in.

He means children should go to school even though it’s not very safe on the whole. In my opinion.

It’s not true is it?

If schools are safe why are London primary schools staying closed?

He says "Schools are safe". What does he mean? You can't catch covid in a school? That has to be nonsense. So what is the definition of "safe" then when he says it? Less than 50% probability? Less than 10%? Just a bit safer than being in a hospital? Than attending an illegal rave? It's a meaningless word. Even isolating in our own homes isn't 100% safe, as it's still slightly possible to pick it up from something that is delivered.
