Theses are 2 separate programme of work, the first run by BEIS, the second in policy departments with oversight from the Cabinet Office - but they are now linked in law. Serious thought must be given to make them coherent

This isn't a paranoid conspiracy theory - it is already happening in the majority of districts across the US where schools are closed.
"Learning Hubs" open, supervised by childcare workers, sometimes in the same "unsafe" school
There is NO OTHER WAY to get "small classes" without Hybrid + wraparound childcare. Your child will spend 2-3 days per WEEK supervised by low wage workers and sitting on a laptop.
