With the coronavirus leaving many schools with staff shortages it is becoming more difficult for headteachers to keep schools open.

Many were closed today (Wednesday) with more set to close tomorrow.

And this afternoon the Government has announced that all UK schools will shut from Friday until further notice.

This is apart from looking after the children of key workers and vulnerable children.
