Speaking in the House of Commons, Mr Williamson said that exam year groups– namely year 11 and 13 – will now be returning on January 11, with all other year groups coming in on January 18.
The delay is to ensure an "ambitious" mass testing programme is in place for the pupils on their return.
Mr Williamson said: "We have already announced our intention for a staggered return for secondary-age pupils and those in colleges.
