Some are saying the Government's updated health guidance for children is bringing back the balance from the pandemic.

The guidelines say children with a mild cough, headache, or runny nose can go to school given they don't have Covid-19 or other symptoms like fever or diarrhoea.

He says it's part of a wider message to get kids back to school.

Brewerton says we have a big attendance problem and it's a way of saying to get rid of any more issues.
