It seems London schools will be shut for some time to come. Shame for the parents and the children. It did strike me as perverse that in the case of younger children the year bubble arrangement is not considered safe enough and yet the communal play areas will be open where children from different years and different schools will be in close proximity touching the same stuff. Apparently the "oh but it's outdoors" doesn't work with this strain of the virus. Cards on the table I was against the schools closing but if as they have chosen to close them it seems logical that they close the play areas too. |
