New government guidance has been published late on Friday outlining contingency plans in place to control coronavirus when schools return next week, with Gavin Williamson saying it was right to prepare for a 'worst-case scenario'
Entire school year groups may be sent home for 14 days if pupil catches coronavirus
New government guidance says that a single case of coronavirus in a school could mean an entire year group being sent home.
New advice, published late on the Friday before schools return next week, outline a number of contingency plans for a "worst-case scenario".
They include a "rota system" limiting the number of pupils going to secondary schools at any one time in local lockdown zones.
Teachers and students may need to wear face coverings in communal areas, the guidance confirms.
Labour has slammed the timing of the announcement late on Friday before a bank holiday weekend, saying it "beggars belief".
The new guidance comes as Boris Johnson reiterated his view that getting kids back is Britain's "most important task" and he insisted pubs would shut before schools in the event of any future spike in infections.

The staggered "rota" approach of two weeks in and two weeks out of school will reduce how many people students come into contact with, helping to break transmission chains by giving enough time at home for symptoms to become apparent, said the Department for Education (DfE).
If a coronavirus case is confirmed, every pupil in the affected person's class, or "bubble", may have to quarantine for two weeks, it added.
A bubble could be a small number of children or it could be as large as the entire year group.
Those affected would need to switch to distance learning and stay home for 14 days.
Education Secretary Gavin Williamson said any changes to school attendance "will only ever be an absolute last resort".

But school leaders criticised the timing of the announcement, which came on Friday evening just before the bank holiday weekend, with millions of pupils returning to class next week for autumn term.
Geoff Barton, general secretary of the Association of School and College Leaders, said: "To wait until the Friday night before most schools return isn't the Government's finest moment.
"Obviously, schools haven't had any chance whatsoever to incorporate this into their planning and will now have to revisit the plans they have put in place."
Paul Whiteman, general secretary of school leaders' union NAHT, added: "We've been calling for the Government to publish a Plan B for several weeks.

"Finally it is here, but another late night publication is fairly typical of what we've become used to."

She added: "The Government's incompetence is insulting to the school leaders and teachers who have worked so hard over summer to prepare schools for children to return."

All schools remain open at tier one, while tiers three and four mean more stringent restrictions such as closures to all but pupils in vulnerable groups or children of key workers.

She said the advice could change in the future.

Saturday horse racing tips: Who to back at Goodwood and Newmarket - plus get a free £5 bet
The big race of the day is the Celebration Mile (15:35 Goodwood) and it should be a real cracker of a contest.
Benbatl sets the standard on official ratings with a mark of 125 but he hasn’t run since the end of February and has never won on soft ground so I’m willing to look elsewhere.
Century Dream, who loves a bit of cut and can go very well, was fifth in a Group 1 last time behind a good winner but I think he could be susceptible to an improver.
That improver could well be Sir Busker for William Knight who gave weight and just failed to beat Montatham last time at York.
The latter is really good so to give him 3lb and only just fail to beat him speaks volumes. Even the third, Top Rank, is a decent colt and that form could well prove to be top drawer. I’m willing to take a chance on Sir Busker causing a little upset at a nice price of 17/2.
Front runner to dictate the pace
Subjectivist at 6/4 in the 15:00 Goodwood should be able to dictate this race and as such take all the beating.
His form is better than that of favourite Cabaletta, with the third here in the Gordon Stakes probably being the standout.
I’m willing to ignore Subjectivist’s below par run last time out at York as he dwelt in the stalls for a tad too long and was always on the back foot even though he rushed through to lead that field. Fending off challengers up that York straight is tricky especially coming down the middle of the track and challenged on both sides.
Front running and dictating tactics are far easier to pull off at Goodwood especially in a small field. And they are the straightforward tactics our selection can employ and should prove successful.
A hot bet for Newmarket
Over at Newmarket, Summerghand at 11/4 in the 14:05 looks far too good for the field. The fact David O’Meara’s runner was able to carry 9-10 to victory in one of the most competitive handicaps of the year suggests he’s a Group winner in the making, and I’m talking possibly Group 2 or even Group 1 level.
The only slight worry is the lack of pace. Ground isn’t a problem as he won on near enough the full range and I’d be disappointed were he not able to beat these.
This 12/1 chance due a slice of luck
Finally, O’Meara could be having an even better day as his Tinandali in the 15:15 Windsor could be too good for the rest of this nice little competitive field.
Put simply, he hasn’t had any luck whatsoever this season and I think the long kinked straight at Windsor could really play into his hands. He’s improving with each run and at 12/1 I’m taking him to run them all down late.

thedailymirror--2020-08-28--Sex workers vent fury at Bella Thorne over sexy OnlyFans photos

Bella Thorne has drawn the wrath of the sex worker community who claim her OnlyFans success has damaged their own porn prowess .
Former Disney child star Bella , 22 , shocked fans this week when she launched an OnlyFans page – a website where people share erotic , and often sexually explicit , photographs and videos .
The flame haired beauty teased fans that they would be able to see photos of her in a state of undress if they paid $ 200 ( £150 ) for access to three snaps .
The star has claimed to have banked @ @ @ @ @ @ @ days as titillated fans hungrily forked over the asking price to gain access to her page – and some have demanded refunds after finding the images are not as explicit as thought .
However , the sex worker community have unleashed their fury on the actress as they claim their livelihoods have been damaged by her overnight success .
Some other users of the OnlyFans site have claimed that the rules to the site have changed in light of Bella ’ s success – with a maximum change of $ 50 ( £38 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ claims that payment now takes 30 days , where before it was 7 days .
Rumours are rife that the OnlyFans site has been forced to introduce the measures as they owe Bella so much money following her own success .
One angry sex worker blasted online : “ She scammed her subscribers and sent out $ 200 PPV ( a message you have to pay to view ) claiming it was a fully nude photos set .
It was not .
So many people requested refunds that now OnlyFans won ’ t @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for PPV OR get tipped over $ 100 .
“ And this morning we were all told that instead of waiting 7 days for our payouts , we have to wait 30 .
“ The theory is that OF can ’ t afford to pay her her cut so now our funds are being tied up.
” OnlyFans have furiously denied that they have changed their rules due to Bella ’ s alleged success .
A spokesperson for the site told TMZ : “ Transaction limits are set to help prevent overspending and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ use the site safely .
“ We value all of the feedback received since this change was implemented and we will continue to review these limits . ''
They added : `` Our objective remains to provide the best platform possible for the OnlyFans community .

The sex worker community have argued their own profits are being damaged after Bella raked in $1 million in one day when she launched an OnlyFans account to share sizzling photos with fans
Bella Thorne has drawn the wrath of the sex worker community who claim her OnlyFans success has damaged their own porn prowess.
Former Disney child star Bella, 22, shocked fans this week when she launched an OnlyFans page – a website where people share erotic, and often sexually explicit, photographs and videos.
The flame haired beauty teased fans that they would be able to see photos of her in a state of undress if they paid $200 (£150) for access to three snaps.
The star has claimed to have banked millions of dollars in a matter of days as titillated fans hungrily forked over the asking price to gain access to her page – and some have demanded refunds after finding the images are not as explicit as thought.
However, the sex worker community have unleashed their fury on the actress as they claim their livelihoods have been damaged by her overnight success.
Some other users of the OnlyFans site have claimed that the rules to the site have changed in light of Bella’s success – with a maximum change of $50 (£38) for access to images, and claims that payment now takes 30 days, where before it was 7 days.
Rumours are rife that the OnlyFans site has been forced to introduce the measures as they owe Bella so much money following her own success.
One angry sex worker blasted online: “She scammed her subscribers and sent out $200 PPV (a message you have to pay to view) claiming it was a fully nude photos set. It was not. So many people requested refunds that now OnlyFans won’t allow us to charge over $50 for PPV OR get tipped over $100.

“And this morning we were all told that instead of waiting 7 days for our payouts, we have to wait 30.
“The theory is that OF can’t afford to pay her her cut so now our funds are being tied up.”
OnlyFans have furiously denied that they have changed their rules due to Bella’s alleged success.
A spokesperson for the site told TMZ: “Transaction limits are set to help prevent overspending and to allow our users to continue to use the site safely.
“We value all of the feedback received since this change was implemented and we will continue to review these limits."

They added: "Our objective remains to provide the best platform possible for the OnlyFans community. We can confirm that any changes to transaction limits are not based on any one user."
Bella has stated she opened an OnlyFans account as research for a role for a new film being directed by Sean Baker.
She told the LA Times: “It’s a feature we are researching as I’m living it currently.
“What are the ins and outs? What does a platform like this do to its users? What’s the connective material between your life and your life inside the world of OnlyFans?
“How can it change your life for the worse and the better? How far are you willing to go, and how far do you WANT to go?
“You can be me, or this talented girl from Montana, and OnlyFans could change your life — if you want it to, of course.”
It is also believed she intends to use profits from her page to invest in her production company and donate to charity.

A massive explosion in the frozen Arctic tundra has left a 165ft deep crater amid a summer of unprecedented heat .
Caused by a buildup of methane gas , the giant hole - one of the biggest found so far - was accidentally discovered on the Yamal peninsula in Russia as a TV crew flew overhead .

The massive crater was accidentally discovered on the Yamal peninsula in Russia's Arctic region as a TV crew flew overhead, and previous discoveries have sparked conspiracy theories about everything from UFOs to missile tests
A massive explosion in the frozen Arctic tundra has left a 165ft deep crater amid a summer of unprecedented heat.
Caused by a buildup of methane gas, the giant hole - one of the biggest found so far - was accidentally discovered on the Yamal peninsula in Russia as a TV crew flew overhead.
Blocks of soil and ice were thrown “hundreds of metres” from the epicentre of the “colossal force”, according to scientists who examined the site.
They cited a build up of pressure from methane gas in the thawing permafrost after a record hot summer in many Arctic regions across Russia.
It is the 17th large cylindrical cavity to appear in the past six years, and previous craters have sparked conspiracy theories about everything from UFOs to Kremlin missile tests.
Gas is released in soil that has been frozen for thousands of years but is now defrosting.
The new hole was initially spotted by chance from the air by a Vesti Yamal TV crew en route from an unrelated assignment in July.
A group of scientists then made an expedition to examine the large cylindrical crater estimated at up to 165ft deep.

Scientist Dr Evgeny Chuvilin, a leading researcher at Skolkovo Institute of Science and Technology, said it was “striking in its size and grandeur”.
The crater came about from “colossal forces of nature”, he said.
Professor Vasily Bogoyavlensky, of the Russian Oil and Gas Research Institute in Moscow, told the TV station: “This object is unique.
“It holds a lot of additional scientific information, which I am not yet ready to disclose.
“This is a subject for scientific publications.”
These craters appear because “gas-saturated cavities are formed in the permafrost," he said.
A void space is "filled with gas with high pressure" and "the covering layer distends, the thickness of which is five to ten metres [16-32ft] approximately”, he added.
Some but not all explosions have occurred in swelling pingos - or mounds - in the tundra when the gas builds up under a thick cap of ice.
Bogoyavlensky has previously claimed that drilling for natural gas in Yamal - a key supplier for Europe - may be a factor in the eruptions.
He is also concerned at the risk of ecological disasters if the explosions occur under gas pipelines, production facilities or residential areas.
He said previously: “In a number of areas, pingos - as we see both from satellite data and with our own eyes during helicopter inspections - literally prop up gas pipes.
“In some places they jack up the gas pipes... they seem to begin to slightly bend these pipes.”
Russian scientists call the holes "hydrolaccoliths" or "bulgunnyakhs".
They say study of the phenomenon is at an early stage.
When the mysterious holes first appeared in 2014 there was wild speculation that they were caused by Kremlin missile tests, aliens from UFOs, or that they were man-made as a prank.
In 2017, one of the Yamal craters exploded a second time after scientists noticed signs of a new gas outburst.
