The Children鈥檚 Commissioner Anne Longfield told Mishal Husain she is 鈥渉ugely disappointed鈥� for children in England who will not be returning to primary school before September, due to concerns over social distancing. Mishal also heard from the head of the education select committee, Robert Halfon MP, who urged the Government to reconsider the decision and said the UK is a "strange country" for prioritising reopening pubs over schools. There had been an aim for all primary pupils to spend four weeks in school before the summer break.
