Coronavirus: What are the rules for face masks or face coverings? Many of the UK's secondary school pupils will have to wear face coverings when they return for the autumn term.
The rules differ slightly around the country. What are the face covering rules in schools? In Scotland and Northern Ireland, secondary school pupils will have to wear face coverings between lessons from 31 August. The Scottish government says all pupils over the age of 12 should wear face coverings in corridors and communal areas. However, they will not have to wear them in classrooms. On school buses, everyone over the age of five will have to wear face coverings.
The advice is similar in Northern Ireland, where the education minister said guidance on face coverings would be updated to include wearing them in the corridors of post-primary schools. In England, secondary schools will have the ''discretion'' to require face coverings in communal areas, where social distancing is not possible. This will not include in classrooms during lessons.

The minister said this was to allow "full classes" to attend school as lockdown restrictions are eased.
Guidance issued on Friday suggests: Mr Weir said his ambition remained for all pupils to resume classroom-based learning "as soon as it is safely possible to do so".
