Primary schools and nurseries will reopen in one week despite fears it's unsafe

Primary schools and nurseries will reopen to more pupils on June 1, the Transport Secretary has insisted amid fears it would be unsafe.

Grant Shapps said the Government intends to stick with a plan to begin reopening schools a week from Monday as part of measures to ease the coronavirus lockdown.

Teachers and labour unions have argued Downing Street's plan will put pupils and staff at risk, and a number of councils have rebelled and said they will keep schools closed or leave the decision to head teachers.

A group of scientists has said it would be unsafe to send pupils back on June 1 and has urged the Government to delay the move for two weeks.
