Oldham Council have said children and parents should be vigilant with the regulations surrounding Covid-19.
The comments come after an Oldham headteacher wrote to parents warning them that their child is at risk from being withdrawn from school if Covid rules are not being followed at home.
In the letter, Martine Buckley, Executive Headteacher at Yew Tree Community School in Chadderton said Currently a number of [the children] are telling us that they are visiting friends, neighbours and family which is against the law. Our teachers and support staff are putting their own safety at risk to look after your children and they should be confident that you are doing your bit to follow the lockdown rules
