Jahvi insisted that the decision was an attempt “Reduce Disruption” in Schools, at a time when the Omicron variant, which is the most contagious among people known, takes the UK coronavirus infection to a record low.

The BBC reported that teachers would not have to wear them under the new guidelines.

Until now, England was one of four parts of the UK not to recommend the use of masks for pupils in classrooms, something that was recommended for students aged 11 and over in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland .

During the two-week holiday for Christmas in the United Kingdom, in the middle of winter, the number of daily cases of coronavirus broke all records, reaching 189,000 on 31 December.

Zahvi indicated that education was “the number one priority” for her and the Prime Minister’s Conservative government, boris johnson, which only has health competitions in England.

We will do “everything in our power” to reduce interruptions in the teaching of classes, the education minister said.

Johnson introduced some restrictions early last month, such as the use of masks in most places in England, telecommunications whenever possible and vaccination certificates for participating in mass events.
