Several months after the coronavirus pandemic triggered a global shutdown, headteachers fully re-opened their classrooms as the new school year began this autumn.

But just how successful has the return been for pupils, parents and staff?

The UK’s COVID-19 infection rate is on the rise, piling pressure on testing capacity – and fears of a second national lockdown loom.
With the winter season fast-approaching, how will schools cope in the months ahead?

In this episode of Sky News Daily podcast with Jonathan Samuels, we are joined by school leaders from each corner of the UK to discuss the challenges they have faced so far and their concerns for the future.
Jonathan and Sky’s Laura Bundock also share their analysis of the situation and thoughts as parents themselves.
