UK govt changes its mind on masks in English schools

Protective face masks are seen for sale in Birmingham, central England on August 22, 2020, as Britain’s second-city, home to more than one million people, was made an “area of enhanced support”, because of concern about a spike in cases of the novel coronavirus.

The change is being seen as another U-turn, just weeks after ministers were forced to scrap the use of an algorithm which gave 17- and 18-year-olds lower-than-expected exam grades. Labour’s education spokeswoman Kate Green slammed a “half-baked U-turn”. “The government should have given clear guidance and a plan to deliver it,” she said.
