Called back to work but no school for DS

Does anyone know anything about employment rights currently as I've been called back to work on Monday but my DS isn't yet back to school in the published year groups.

His own school won't take him. And as he hasn't been there since lockdown i think it would be unhealthy for him to be dumped back there with no normal routine or friends.

I can't take him to work - it's a school! I work in administration.

Feeling stuck. Had this pushed on me now for Monday.

@Discobar

Employees who are unable to work because they have caring responsibilities resulting from coronavirus (COVID-19) can be furloughed. For example, employees that need to look after children can be furloughed.

The school wouldn't want to furlough her as she is needed to do her job....if there isn't a job to do then she should be made redundant.

Also the guidance for the public sector is generally not to furlough as it is recycling public money essentially

@OP have you asked the head at your DS school if he can go?
