What are working parents with school-age children meant to do? Take two weeks off work? Quit their jobs? Even if people are working from home, it's not a case of "sticking them in front of the computer" (assuming every child even has a computer) - under-10s need adult supervision

That's not to say school closures are the wrong call, if the very scary transmission figures demand it. But it needs to go hand in hand with support for parents and guidance for employers. And I haven't seen any of that - not back in the first lockdown, and not now 9 months later
