This question was answered on 29th June 2020
We want to get all children and young people back into education as soon as the scientific advice allows because it is the best place for them to learn, and because we know how important it is for their mental wellbeing to have social interactions with their peers, carers and teachers.
We are working to bring all children and young people, including those at boarding schools, back into education in September.
