Boris Johnson has confirmed pupils will not return to schools as had been planned after February half term.
Instead the prime minister said if the vaccine roll out continued at its current pace schools could reopen on Monday March 8.
And, speaking in the House of Commons, he added that government would set out plans in the week beginning February 22 for the gradual and phased route out of lockdown.

Norfolk s agricultural college has begun hosting virtual farm visits to ensure primary school children don t lose countryside learning opportunities during the coronavirus pandemic.
In a normal year the farm at Easton College, outside Norwich, hosts between 50 and 100 visits from local primary schools, with each event tailored to the year group involved and to maximise links with the curriculum.
Younger ages are taught about where their food comes from, the changing seasons and animal welfare, while the work with older pupils can be more focused, such as science and maths days - but in all cases they help develop awareness of the jobs and opportunities in land-based careers.
