Paul Whiteman, general secretary of school leaders’ union NAHT, said: “This report highlights many of the concerns and challenges schools have been grappling with and raising with government over the last few weeks as they plan to open more widely.
“School leaders and their teams have worked tirelessly over the past two weeks to put in place arrangements to keep pupils, parents and staff as safe as possible as they return. But, as this report highlights, flexibility is crucial, both at an individual school level and regionally, to allow every school to make the best arrangements possible for their specific circumstances.”
