A secondary school forced to shut after a coronavirus outbreak has written to parents to explain its reopening schedule.
In a letter to parents the school said there would be a "staggered reopening".
In the seven days up to 6 May, the rate of infection in Erewash per 100,000 people was 185.5, up from just 17.3 in the week up to 29 April.
Head teacher Derek Hobbs told families pupils in Years 10 to 13 will be able to return on Tuesday, with Years 7 and 8 allowed back on Thursday and all year groups from Friday.
