In Austria where one of my grandsons lives, they halved the class sizes, and kids go to school three days one week, and twice (two times) the following week. Home work for days not attending.
In UK where my other grandson schools, they are (allegedly) making class years into 'bubbles' where they only mix with the same kids all the time, and stay in that group all day.
Seems a reasonable solution for a school of 1200 pupils, but the bubble bursts when they go to and from school, as all ages and 'bubbles' mix on the busses!
As initiatives, and directives seem to change hourly, and on a whim here in UK, that system could be out the window soon.
Kids are in the least vulnerable group, so I don't see it as a dangerous move for them.
The only problem I could see is if they bring the bug home without them feeling ill.
We shall see.
Most Parents will be happy with any system!!
