    Here's the guidance - p.47 and Annexe C 👉 Glad to see school bubbles are recognised overnight while groups are away on residentials. 🙌Bring on next Monday!🎉 will you allow Welsh children the same opportunities?

    One week to go until residential school trips can begin again in England 🥳 Fingers crossed that give the sector workable guidance early this week - our young people deserve to get back out on trips after 14 months
