On 16 August 2021 the government removed the requirement for under-18s to self-isolate when members of their family have Covid-19. Evidence shows that household contacts are most likely to catch and spread Covid-19. In comparison with other measures, such as sending home whole school classes, self-isolation for household contacts is highly effective and causes relatively little disruption. Abandoning this fundamental safety measure will cause a significant increase in Covid-19 cases in schools and the wider community, endangering children, teachers, and clinically vulnerable members of our society, and causing further disruption in schools.
