The Prime Minister addressed MPs in the House of Commons, warning them the exit strategy is "cautious but also irreversible", but adding the hugely positive impact of the country's vaccine programme is gradually replacing the need for lockdown measures to remain. He insisted lockdown measures cannot continue indefinitely but did however acknowledge the latest scientific modelling from experts warned lifting lockdown measures too quickly would trigger a spike in Covid cases and deaths. As expected, Mr Johnson confirmed the first step in the lockdown roadmap would see all school pupils return to the classroom on March 8, with a wider use of face masks and Covid testing in secondary schools.

Prime Minister Boris Johnson said schools will need to offer remote learning as children can’t go in for face-to-face lessons. GCSE and A-Level exams face cancellation for a second year, as well. Mr Johnson said closing schools was necessary “because we have to do everything we possibly can to stop the spread of the disease”. Those entitled to free school meals will continue to receive them during the closures, with more electronic devices expected to be distributed in an effort to help remote learning, according to the Government.
