Question: Will all schools be staying open during the outbreak?

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?
Are schools opening on the May bank holiday?
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.
Schools should decide, in consultation with the parents of children who are
currently attending school, whether it is necessary for them to continue to
look after critical workers’ children and vulnerable children over the May
bank holiday.

Reviewer feedback on this answer:
They don't have a clear answer so they specify that it's up to each school.
This is an acceptable answer because it talks about school openings, but also which schools they will exempt from opening. This can be used as a good answer for the question. An excellent answer would have more confident detail about which schools exactly are and aren’t open.

We acknowledge that some schools and early years settings may be unable to do

commissioners, and neighbouring schools and settings, to continue to support
these children.
