It's been said that U18 and the double jabbed won't have to isolate if they are a close contact from 16 August.
This has been taken at face value.
This new report from Oxford says testing for close contacts is a successful way to avoid isolation and that
Prof Paul Hunter, from the University of East Anglia, said schools would probably still need some controls on their return
"At least daily testing... will have less harm on children's education than the current exclusion policy, whether or not it has real benefit in controlling the epidemic,"
So what is the plan, close contacts of primary get tested daily?
Senior school children get tested daily but if they don't agree/can't will they still need to isolate (and therefore will teachers still need to be prepared with online work?)
Why tout the idea of normal school in September when this is not possible?
