Many pupils went back to school in June but the government said that all pupils, in all year groups, would need to return to school full-time from the beginning of the autumn term. Measures have been taken by schools across Leeds to limit the spread of coronavirus, including staggered start times, social distancing and creating year group bubbles. These bubbles mean that only people within that bubble need to self-isolate if there is a positive Covid-19 case. These are the schools that have been affected by positive cases as of Thursday, September 17:
