Covid: Northern Ireland Education Minister: 'We're bit by bit moving into better times'

When will schools open up again?

It's difficult to know for sure at this point but schools in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland may open at different times depending on the different lockdowns in each country.

In Northern Ireland, pupils in primaries one to three will return to classrooms on 8 March.

After two weeks, they will resume remote learning so older pupils in years 12 to 14 can go back to school.
