Kate Green responds to Gavin Williamson saying that school bubbles could end on 19th July

“Schools, parents and pupils need urgent clarity. If bubbles will end on 19 July, schools need to know now so they can plan.

“Changing restrictions for 5 days at the end of term, will create more chaos for schools and families. Action is needed now to protect the final weeks of learning this year, but the Government has had nothing to say about supporting schools to put further mitigations in place.

“The Government must stop this drip-feed of information which is wreaking havoc with children’s educations.”
