We'd really like to hear from you if you have a child due to go back to school next month. Some studies have suggested that children are the safest group to release from lockdown.
We'd really like to hear from you if you have a child due to go back to school next month. Some early studies have suggested that children are the safest group to release from lockdown.
The Cabinet Office Minister Michael Gove, has insisted primary schools will be safe when some pupils in England return at the beginning of June although he says the risk can't be completely eliminated. But many teachers and parents have expressed safety concerns, in particular over maintaining social distancing. There are also worries that if children don't return to school soon, pupils from more disadvantaged backgrounds will fall even further behind.
How happy are you to send your child back to school? Maybe you're a teacher, a headteacher or a school governor. What are the risks and benefits for you?
