JCoSS parents were told that “students and staff will be expected to wear masks whilst moving around inside the building, but not during lessons. All students must therefore bring a mask, restrained in design, and a small sealable plastic bag to keep it in when not in use.
“The evidence surrounding masks indicates that they may reduce risk if worn and handled correctly: they are not a magical forcefield, and absorb infection rather than preventing it.”
King David High School Manchester, where pupils began returning last Friday, has gone even further, making masks compulsory, even in class.
