Health minister says only Manx data will be used to decide when schools re-open
The date for re-opening the Isle of Man schools won't be linked to the UK's decision.
That's the insistence of Health Minister David Ashford, who says only Manx data will be used to make the decision for the Island's schools.
Some pupils in the UK will be able to return to the classroom next month, although some English councils have said they won't allow schools to reopen.
Mr Ashford says many countries have taken different routes:
Fundraiser for TT rider Maria Costello surpasses £220k
Warmer than average May for Island
Manx BirdLife awarded funding for new warden
Increased DfE support 'to tackle rising costs and global pressures'
Police appeal after two motorcycles involved in collision
