As planned, the Ministry of Education told principals and CEOs that students should prepare for January exams and assessments.
As part of this morning’s “urgent” update, the DfE also confirmed that Ofsted will suspend all inspections scheduled for the next week, with the exception of inspections related to protection.
On the DfE website a few hours later, an updated operating guidance document was posted.
The new measures were implemented after the Prime Minister announced last night that the government would implement its Plan B Covid-19 response measures.
