(Reuters) - Britain's schools will not follow social distancing rules when students return to their classes full-time in September, The Daily Telegraph reported on Wednesday.

Pupils will not be expected to keep two metres, or even one metre, apart at all times while in a school building, the report said.

According to the report, schools will be asked to focus on limiting the extent to which children mix outside of their class or year group and on implementing strict hygiene regimes.
