Masks will be needed at the start of next term, but might not be required after 17 May, say ministers
But head teachers say masks can disrupt learning and should not be used any longer than is "absolutely necessary". But the latest DfE guidance says: "It is expected that face coverings will no longer be required to be worn in classrooms, or by students in other communal areas, at step three of the roadmap, which will be no earlier than 17 May.""Schools and students have done a great job adapting to Covid secure guidance and working hard to make sure it doesn't impact learning," said Mr Williamson.
However, Geoff Barton, head of the school leaders' union ASCL, said that while his union would support the department's new guidance, masks in class were "not ideal".
I teach in an international school abroad. Masks are mandatory and in the last year have had no internally spread cases in my school or any other schools I know of here. It works for staff and student. I have asthma and wear glasses and it isn’t an issue
Oh please... I’m far from convinced masks offer any benefit full stop, never mind with kids to which covid19 presents a very minimal risk. Don’t forget we have a world leading vaccination programme in this country and the most vulnerable have all been offered a jab...
Good
Fucking mental cases
Thinking about Pink Floyd.
I’ll be getting an exemption for my son who can’t see out his glasses whilst wearing the mask in class! Don’t bother telling me it’s fine and he should wear the mask tighter/higher etc. It doesn’t work. The glasses fog up whatever he does!
Secondary are voluntarily testing even over Easter. So its a bit of a mix up tbh. Some test some don't. As yet my sons school has had no positives.
Crazy. Its mad how far the real situation is from the theoretical one, and yet still the numbers have plummeted.
At least in the picture in the news article show most people wearing masks lol kids don’t care
Then they will get more sickness more often. Suppressing and ruining their natural immunities. Hard to think this is not deliberate because doctors would understand this. Then think about control and disruption of social interactions? Disgusting and ignorant but you know that.
In other countries they do so we are not special or invincible.
Shame adults don’t wear them in enclosed spaces...... seeing fewer and fewer of them already. Third wave yes or no ? More whinging when liberties are again reduced ?

Joke
At my daughters school they give them the option if they want to wear them in class guess what they don’t ...no cases at her school 🤷🏼♀️
Given the role schools play in transmission, if the government were even slightly concerned about children's welfare and education it would pursue a strategy of eliminating the virus
Horrible decision by the government as per usual when it comes to education. The only reason masks are being demanded in schools is because of the unions. When will Gavin Williamson be relieved from duty? The man is useless.
And probably after the summer as well. Just got to hope the bubble system isn’t required in schools from September as most school community/extra-curricular/inter-school activities are just not happening as things are.
Who is this all for? Can’t be them because they don’t get ill from it, can’t be nan as she has been vaccinated, so who is it for
Would love to see the data that made this possible.... Feel sorry for all those kids...
Why
UNESCO is sheltering cultural vandals thegagrule caviardiplomacy
Most kids have been having tests twice a week, if they are negative why would masks be needed?
Think all patents and kids should stand up and say no to wearing them.
STREAM:
People that think wearing a mask is child abuse, clearly haven't experienced abuse in their life. The virus isn’t gone yet, it’s for the protection of everyone, get a grip.
