Quote from The Sun: Boris Johnson has extended England's lockdown for another three more weeks - and schools won't go back until March 8 at the earliest.
The PM admitted today that getting kids back to class was tied to the national restrictions - and that children will not be going back after February half-term as hoped.
The PM told Parliament this afternoon children would continue to learn remotely for another five weeks - and there was not yet enough data to decide when to lift the lockdown measures.
He said: "At this point, we do not have enough data to judge the full effect of vaccines in blocking transmission nor the extent and speed with which the vaccines will reduce hospitalisations and deaths, nor how quickly the combination of vaccinations and the lockdown can be expected to ease the pressure on the NHS."
The PM originally said the lockdown would be in place - and schools shut - until the middle of February but left the door open for it to be extended.

Not really a surprise with the virus still running rampant.
