Schools across the UK have been closed to help stop the spread of the coronavirus.

Some schools have been kept open for the children of key workers, including those who work for the NHS or police. Children who need extra help and support are also able to continue going to school.

However, the government's decision to shut schools affects the majority of primary and secondary school students in the UK and the changes have probably left you with lots of questions.

Perhaps you're worried about whether you'll get to sit your exams, or maybe you're wondering how not attending lessons or speaking to your teachers will affect you.
