Question: Are AP settings following the same protective measures as mainstream schools?

Answer passage (source: UK):
page_title: Guidance Coronavirus (COVID-19): implementing protective measures in education and childcare settings
section_headers: Additional questions
What does implementing protective measures look like in alternative provision (AP)?
section_content: AP settings should follow the same principles and guidance as mainstream
schools. As much as possible, protective measures should be adhered to and
class or group sizes should be small. Staff should use simple language to
explain safety measures, and reiterate and reinforce key messages. Safe
routines for access to toilets, hand-cleaning and break and lunch times should
be put in place. Teaching resources can be used to aid understanding.
Settings may need to carry out a risk assessment, if it is deemed that a child
or young person may not be able to follow instructions, to determine what
mitigations need to be put in place and whether, in rare circumstances, they
should stay at home. For those children and young people with a social worker,
our expectation is that they should attend their educational setting unless a
risk assessment concludes they will be safer at home.

page_title: Guidance Safe working in education, childcare and children’s social care settings, including the use of personal protective equipment (PPE)
section_headers: What care should be taken in early years settings?
section_content: Because it is challenging to reduce contact between young children in early
years settings, regular cleaning and disinfection of surfaces, objects and
toys, as well as handwashing, are particularly important. The use of soft toys
and toys with intricate parts or that are otherwise hard to clean should be
avoided. Read guidance on cleaning for non-healthcare
settings.
Settings should manage risks by keeping children in small groups and trying,
as far as possible, to keep the same children and staff members together from
day to day. Settings should consider staggering mealtimes and should
discourage parents and carers from gathering at setting entrances. As far as
possible, parents and carers should not enter early years premises.

Answer passage (source: UK):
page_title: Guidance Actions for schools during the coronavirus outbreak
section_headers: What arrangements should schools and local authorities maintain throughout the remainder of May?
Schools and early years settings in some areas are operating in ‘hubs’ - for example, groups of schools/settings operating at a single site. Is this permitted?
section_content: We are asking schools to remain open for children of critical workers and
vulnerable children where they can, but we understand that some may be unable
to do so especially if they are experiencing severe staff shortages.
Local authorities should therefore work with maintained, academy and
independent schools to identify temporary places for any children affected
whilst their normal schools are closed.
With significantly reduced pupil numbers, and risks of understaffing due to
illness, we understand that shared provision through multi-school or early
years hubs and clusters is an option being considered in some areas. In some
cases, arrangements are already in place.
Please see guidance on Using clusters and hubs to maintain provision in
educational settings.
