A COVID “super-spreader free-for-all” could be unleashed in schools if the government “recklessly” lifts restrictions this week, unions warned yesterday.

Those in the education sector were joined by the TUC and Labour in telling Prime Minister Boris Johnson that his “living with Covid” plan was fraught with danger, particularly the abolition of self-isolation rules for infected people and the withdrawal of free testing.

Unite, Unison and GMB, representing school support staff, told the PM that his plan could lead to “chaos reigning in schools and millions of hours of lost learning.”
