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:
Island's finances 'in a better position than most other jurisdictions'
Completion of assisted dying bill 'the most significant moment of 2025'
Keep dogs away from Garwick Beach for next few days
Cost of sending a letter on the Island to increase in January
