David Seymour says schools will remain open as long as possible as fuel prices continue to rise. 

The Ministry of Education's been developing contingency plans as rural schools grapple with a shortage of relievers and falling attendance. 

Seymour —the Associate Minister of Education— says the Government won't repeat Labour's mistakes during the Covid era. 

He told Mike Hosking schools will only move to online learning if we face severe fuel disruptions.
