Schools are likely to reopen over a phased basis in March
Students will return to classrooms over a three week period next month according to the Irish Times.
Special education will start reopening this week.
Aine Lynch from the National Parents Council says March is a long time away for many parents and students:
"No, I don't think it's soon enough. We're currently doing a survey with parents and we're just hearing the desperate situation some families are in, and we just need schools reopened as soon as possible and I think when they hear March and over a three week period- It just feels a very long way away from it for families."
