Guidance COVID-19: travel guidance for the education sector

The DfE and Public Health England updated its guidance yesterday, to include:

'Overseas trips ... The Government advises against all overseas education trips for children under 18.'

The school trips to Belgium (13th March) and Naples (28th March) have been cancelled.

The school trips to Germany (19th June) and France-Disney (16th July) remain under review; they are likely to be cancelled unless the Government advice changes again in the next few weeks.
