Apparently the National Association of Headteachers (NAHT) have now started legal proceedings against the Education department..



Staff at schools have a legal right not to return to classrooms due to the spread of COVID, a leading union has said - while another has started legal proceedings against the Department for Education.

The National Education Union (NEU) has said all primary schools should remain closed for at least two weeks following the Christmas break, and is urging Education Secretary Gavin Williamson to move all learning online as infections continue to rise.

And the government's handling of the situation has prompted the National Association of Head Teachers (NAHT) union, along with the Association of School and College Leaders, to make preliminary steps in legal proceedings.
