Schools Shut From Monday – Only Key Workers’ Kids and Vulnerable Pupils Bear In

Get ready for a major lockdown twist! Schools across the country will close their doors from Monday.

But not everyone is getting the day off. Only children of key workers and those classed as vulnerable will be allowed to attend.

This move aims to curb the latest wave of infections while keeping vital services running.

Who Can Still Attend?

  • Key workers’ children: Those whose parents are on the front line – think NHS staff, police, and emergency services.
  • Vulnerable children: Pupils with special educational needs or those at risk.

Parents Brace for Disruption

Families face upheaval as home-schooling becomes the new norm once again. The decision sparked mixed reactions – with some applauding the safety move, while others worry about the strain on working parents.

Stay tuned for updates and guidance on how this will affect your child’s education.
