× MEMBERS of a Barnsley teachers’ union say they are worried about safety as schools prepare to reopen to all pupils.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced in his ‘coronavirus roadmap’ that schools would be allowed to reopen from March 8 due to a fall in Covid cases.
Currently schools across the borough are closed except to children of key workers to help keep the infection rate low.
The new move would mean that the 87 schools across the borough would be permitted to open their doors after a two-month absence.
Now, the Barnsley National Education Union’s (NEU) members have spoken out about how they believe the plans to reopen schools could be a mistake.
