London: The UK government has instructed all primary schools in London to remain closed and not return for the new term on Monday amid a surge in COVID-19 infections rates across England.After an urgent review, the Department for Education (DfE) decided that the “education contingency framework" will be applicable across all of the UK capital instead of just a few boroughs.It has led to growing calls from the Opposition and teachers’ unions for all schools in England to remain shut due to fears of adding to the pressure on the state-funded National Health Service (NHS) with already rising hospital admissions.“As infection rates rise across the country, and particularly in London, we must make this move to protect our country and the NHS.
