At least 300 schools in the UK will ignore the government ’s plan to open to more students on June 1, because some local government committees say it is not safe to do so. The councils of Liverpool, Hartlepool, Rochdale and Stockport have informed parents that the primary schools under their jurisdiction will not be reopened to children at the beginning of next month, as proposed by the government.
The British government said it will decide this week whether its primary school pupils ’plan to return to school will be implemented“ not earlier than ”on June 1. Many local committees in England have also informed parents that children should return to school next month. Although Liverpool rejected the government ’s plan, the school will be reopened on June 1 in Villars, just across the Moors River.
The Birmingham City Council said that they have not yet decided whether to reopen the school and are waiting for more information from the government. In addition, local governments such as Leeds, Northley, Wigan, Gateshead and Doncaster also said that they have not yet decided when the school will start.
