There is some changing news regarding facemasks coming. Secondary school pupils in Scotland will not need to wear face coverings in classrooms from 28th February.
Pupils will still need to wear masks in communal areas and when moving around inside school buildings and this is still under regular review.
The news comes following medical advice that the R rate is now below 1.
Any young person or staff member who wishes to still wear facemasks should be supported in doing so.
