[2 of 6] "While high levels of Covid-19 infection in the NW remain, & guidance around practical arrangements for social distancing within educational environments, testing & tracing, & supply of PPE is unclear, the borough will not be re-opening schools on June 1" @BuryCouncil
[3 of 6] “In Rochdale we are determined to do the right thing for our children, families and schools ... this may not fit with the expectations or timescale of government” @RochdaleCouncil
[4 of 6] “Everyone involved in education in this borough is clear: the decision to reopen schools will be taken only when it is safe to do so – and not just to meet a particular date, or to do so ‘quickly’.” @KnowsleyCouncil
[5 of 6] “Given that coronavirus cases locally continue to rise … [Hartlepool] council has been working with schools and we have agreed they will not reopen on Monday 1 June.” @HpoolCouncil
[6 of 6] “I cannot support any school reopening if it puts at risk the safety of our teachers, staff and young people.. Simply forcing schools to reopen without taking steps to reduce the risk of the virus spread is unacceptable” - Darren Rowell @lbbdcouncil
