I've just seen a photo on Twitter from one of my local primary schools, of about 18 kids in the playground, all standing in a line next to each other (right next to each other, elbow to elbow). There is a "Thank you Keyworkers" written in chalk on the ground in front of them.
I was shocked as I assumed all the hubs had to stick to strict social distancing, even if it were the exact same kids coming each day. Considering these are probably the kids of key workers who could well be bringing the virus home with them, passing it onto their kid, and sending it into the hub, I am baffled at the photo. It had the 18th May 2020 written on the floor in chalk so definitely a recently photo.
I haven't had to use a primary hub myself and so don't know how they have been operating. Could someone explain if letting the kids all mix so closely like that was allowed?
(I have replied to the tweet asking if they could explain why there wasn't any social distancing in the photo - hope it didn't come across as stroppy, that wasn't my intention.)

did all the primary hubs use social distancing?
