Children aged three to seven will return to school after the February half-term, the Welsh Government is expected to confirm on Friday.
Most pupils have been learning from home after a surge in Covid cases led to a Welsh lockdown.
The decision would mean the foundation phase of primary schools returning from 22 February.
But the head of one teaching union said they would not support the move without assurances about teacher safety.
Education Minister Kirsty Williams is expected to make the announcement at a lunchtime press conference on Friday.

An announcement is expected on Friday over whether some children will return to school later this month.
The Welsh Government has said children up to the age of seven may start returning to school on 22 February, after the half-term break.
But Wales Mental Health and Wellbeing Minister Eluned Morgan said it would be determined by negotiations with teaching unions. Intensive discussions were taking place with them this week, she said.
A head teachers union says it wants to see the scientific modelling on the impact the effect a return of pupils might have.
Ms Morgan told a press conference some strict measures had already been put in place in schools.
