Have I imagined that we were getting clarification on everything at 2pm today?

I think it's at 15:30. That's when I have my reminder set for.

dementedpixie · 11/05/2020 14:06

There is question time thing at 7pm tonight.

OhYouBadBadKitten · 11/05/2020 14:07

trying to find the document online. It is called 'our plan to rebuild'

OhYouBadBadKitten · 11/05/2020 14:07

3:30 is parliamentary questions.

PurpleDaisies · 11/05/2020 14:07

There’s a statement at 215pm according to my TV.

rosecreakybex · 11/05/2020 14:08

How is it possible that we don't know for certain?!?!

I thought the 50 page document was coming out at 2pm?

Also looking for a link.

@rosecreakybex
About par for the course I’d say

AllTheCakes · 11/05/2020 14:10

Nurseries May be able to return on June 1st. Hallelujah Grin

Monkeybunkey · 11/05/2020 14:12

There's a news special on BBC1 at 3pm today including the PM's statement.

PurpleDaisies · 11/05/2020 14:12

I think what’s on the Parliament channel at 215pm is a repeat of last night. It’s showing a live prime minister’s statement at 330pm.

Oh so the UK Gov are now recommending face coverings in public places. You'd have thought that an important step to announce

rosecreakybex · 11/05/2020 14:23

Oh right okay. So we can meet up but only one person.

And the face coverings thing would have surely been a big one to have mentioned last night..?

Plus, it's weds the back to work comes in to action. Not today.

I despair

That’s not correct. It’s only in certain circumstances.

2pm update?
Confusedbutheyho · 11/05/2020 14:25

Is anyone else confused about annexe a for nursery workers and childminders, they will not be able to socially distance

JemimaPuddleCat · 11/05/2020 14:27

Okay, I assumed people would read for more information themselves, I was summarising...

I correct myself to say the UK Gov have recommended that people should “wear a face covering in enclosed spaces where social distancing is not always possible and they come into contact with others that they do not normally meet, for example on public transport or in some shops”

StatisticallyChallenged · 11/05/2020 14:27

We run after school and holiday care - now we're also in Scotland, but no idea if our English counterparts would be allowed to open under this.

PurpleDaisies · 11/05/2020 14:28

That’s very different to what you wrote in your earlier post jemima. People are loving being covid warriors and giving them more ammunition through misleading posts isn’t helpful.

lemonsandlimes123 · 11/05/2020 14:32

There appears to be no further clarification or clear information in the document regarding schools I guess individual HTs are just going to have to make it up as they go along.

JemimaPuddleCat · 11/05/2020 14:32

I have correctly my accidentally misleading comment. Is that more helpful?

JemimaPuddleCat · 11/05/2020 14:35

lemonsandlimes123
What more information are you looking for? I imagine with a forecast date now in mind, schools will be frantically trying to come up with something resembling a plan, and further publication will be released closer to June 1st, if numbers allow.
I think they are being careful not to give too much information just now, as many would assume that having that information to hand meant that the return to schools would be a definite, if that makes sense?

VickyEadieofThigh · 11/05/2020 14:37

I think yesterday (and today) might well show us that the daily briefings are being abandoned.

I wonder why, if that's the case...

Delatron · 11/05/2020 14:38

So interesting that they say all primary children should be able to return to school for a month before summer. So only a few weeks after other years.
