Various media reports have suggested that schools in England could open as soon as the start of June.

Prime Minister Boris Johnson has indicated that primary school pupils will be prioritised when lockdown restrictions ease. And The Sunday Telegraph reported that the Prime Minister would announce next Sunday that primary schools could reopen as early as June 1st, with the newspaper quoting Whitehall sources who added that reopening could be delayed as the result of new data from the Office for National Statistics in the coming week.

But Nicola Sturgeon made clear on Sunday that The Scottish Government will make the decision on schools reopening in Scotland.
