Keeping schools safely open for children and staff is a key priority at all levels of the Resilience and Recovery 2020-2021: Plan for Living with COVID-19.

Schools have the flexibility to decide how physical education, sport and physical activity will be provided whilst following the control measures they have put in place in line with public health requirements.  Competitive fixtures are currently not permitted under level 5 restrictions. Any change to this position will depend on the public health advice prevailing at that time.
