"My guess is that kids will be back to school at the end of May and many restrictions will be lifted then. Travel restrictions will take longer an depend on destination countries. Cal" I love your optimism re schools. We looked at some emails my yr 11 son got from school yesterday. He's hoping to get into 6th form, his maths teacher sent out 23 sheets to work on to 'bridge the gap' between gcse and a level. Make of that what you will. I hope it's sooner but.... | |||

"The exit strategy is going to be a tricky one both physically and morally. The tension between these will be tough for some. Assuming not vaccine, parents with family members who are for example type 1 diabetic will wonder if it really is safe and at what point do they risk their lives one to exposure. There will be many who are keen to bolt when the stable doors are unlocked with the potential dire consequences of causing a second wave of this pandemic. " Totally agree..so plan for late autumn social me thinks.. | |||

"My guess is earliest September for schools. There is far too much to sort to return before then and for what gain, a month or two? " Every day in school has its benefits, and if we don't do the transition process, then next years year sevens will be terrified on their first day. | |||

What transitioning dies the school do that parents can't do? We can make it terrifying by making it a bigger issue too. It's always a big day, big week. It's how parents manage it for their kids. School is far more than a classroom experience and there's a lot to learn outside it too. Read recently an interesting thing about home schooling and that on average 3 hrs home schooling equates to a day in school as far as lesson material is concerned. What surprised me mostly was that this was a new finding to them. Not every parent is in the best position to do it but then again as parents we all do the best we can with what we have | |||

"It depends on how successful we are in eradicating the disease. Once no one has it to infect anyone else, then there's no risk if rules are relaxed. Mass testing is the answer. Germany is well ahead of us and we should be testing to the maximum, so that we have the intelligence that it provides. " How does this equate say with Turkey? I'm not convinced that it's the sole reason. There are many factors, the % of elderly, % vulnerable and the health of the health-care system contributes massively to death toll. Testing will help to identify, but identification is only a step towards helping. | |||

" Latest comments about this after being analysed showed the average age of those tested is 47! Also the majority seem to be very fit people, skiers and others in very active sports. So there's a big question not only over what their tests are actually providing but also have they misused the available tests kits to provide optimistic data. | |||

There is no exit strategy and this virus isn’t going anywhere soon | |||

" A break in isolation, ie could let us out end of May but I reckon with social restrictions still in place. However, if the numbers start to rise again we’ll be put back into lock down | |||
