Minutes from Sage meeting of 17 December (published on Gov.uk website on 31 December) make it clear that a school age children are the most likely to bring the virus into a household - seven times more likely in the case of secondary school age.
There's tons of it out there. Germany closed their schools on 14 December before Christmas as a result of the role of school transmission and I don't accept "cultural differences" as a reason why British exceptionalism should apply.

I’ve asked work to see if I qualify, and for a covering letter.

I do wish you luck with it.
