UK: Schools could go part-time and year-group bubbles be sent home

By ITS Education Asia

This article from the BBC reports on some prosed measures that could be used in the UK to deal with localised outbreaks of the virus.

Secondary school pupils in England could be kept home every other fortnight if local coronavirus cases soar, new guidance for teachers says. The plans also say large groups of students - known as "bubbles" - could be told to stay home in the event of an outbreak among pupils.

By having multiple bubbles within schools a balance might be struck between safety and class disruption.
