Doctors have backed teachers' unions by saying Covid-19 infection rates are too high for England's schools to reopen.
The British Medical Association said teachers and heads were "absolutely right" to urge caution and prioritise testing to avoid a second spike.
It comes after teachers' unions met the government's scientific and medical advisers to express concerns about the planned phased reopening from 1 June.

Why pick the one group of children that really cannot be expected to understand social distancing? Why the rush? Or yet again is the teaching profession regarded as merely childminders? And yes I understand the need to ensure that the least advantaged children get an education but I can't help thinking that adjustments can be made later by extending the teaching day so as to cover missed work. Why risk it now?
