With coronavirus cases surging and less than two weeks of the school holidays left, parents, teachers and opposition politicians in Spain are angry and critical about the government's plans for reopening classrooms, Reuters reported.

“Not a single Spanish family knows what will happen to their children when the school year starts,” said Pablo Casado, leader of the conservative opposition People's Party, accusing Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez's leftist government of keeping the country guessing.

“We cannot let a whole generation of children have their education held back because of a lack of planning,” he said.
