New guidance for schools and early years settings

The government has updated guidance for schools and early years settings as they prepare to reopen fully in September.

Schools guidance has been updated to “provide more advice on risk management and provide clarification on the age requirements related to face coverings on public transport”, the Department for Education says.

It also aims to give more advice on education, health and care plans, clarify some details of the test and trace process and provide additional advice on staff who are clinically vulnerable and clinically extremely vulnerable.

Early years guidance has been updated to reflect changes to 30 hours funding which will be based on census data from January 2020.
