Policy Scotland has been supporting national and local decision-making regarding the re-opening of school education in Scotland.

Policy Scotland Director Professor Chris Chapman sits on the Scottish Government’s Coronavirus (COVID 19): Advisory Sub-Group on Education and Children’s Issues, which is developing iterative operational guidance for providers of learning, childcare and children’s services.

The Scottish Government recently published two key pieces of advice from the Group:

• Advisory note on physical distancing in schools
• Advisory note on school transport

Policy Scotland has also published several briefing papers which focus on related issues:

• Outdoor learning
• Re-opening of schools in Denmark
• Re-opening of schools in Norway
