We, and our grandchildren are all in Tier 4. We have all stuck to the rules, and did not meet with anyone over the whole of the holidays. We were not needed for childcare as parents took time off, so we just kept separate.
I understand the reasons both for closing schools, and for keeping them open; this is not an easy decision.
BUT
At the moment, if our grandchildren don't return to school, we can care for them without putting ourselves at risk. If however, they return to school for a few days, then the schools are forced to close - well then we would really need for them to 'isolate' for 10 days before we could care them safely.
I can't be the only gran thinking this!
