Horncastle Community Primary School pupils head back to the classroom!
Pupils at Horncastle Community Primary School returned to the classroom today (Monday).
The Government has asked schools to re-open for Reception, Year 1 and Year 6 from today as part of ongoing moves to ease the country out of Coronavirus lockdown.
Pupils and their parents/guardians seemed keen to return this morning, as these pictures taken by freelance photographer John Aron show.
But many parents are thought to be reluctant to send children back yet – and there are also some schools that have decided not to open their doors.
In Lincolnshire, the county council as local education authority has left the decision for individual schools.
