Plea to parents not to send their children to school
Schools on the Isle of Man are close to reaching capacity.
It's led to a plea from the Education Minister for parents to think seriously about whether they need to send their children in.
The number of children who have attended educational facilities today is more than double that of the last lockdown.
674 pupils attended primary schools and 92 turned up to secondary school.
In the last lockdown 259 primary pupils attended with 40 attending secondary.
Dr Alex Allinson says it's a challenging situation:
Environmental surveys scheduled for proposed wind farm in south of Island
RNLI launched 40 times in 2024, saving four lives
Mountain Road: Pre-TT maintenance works postponed
Fault that prevented planning documents being viewed now fixed
