Government is aiming for a full reopening of schools by next week (22 June), following the scrapping of social distancing on the Island.
Chief Minister Howard Quayle made the announcement at the latest media conference.
It's as a number of key changes are due to come in this week, including the return of all leisure activities - and the reopening of pubs, clubs and bars from Thursday (18 June).
