Covid-19 case rates among schoolchildren in England have risen sharply, new figures show. A total of 722.9 new cases per 100,000 people aged five to nine were recorded in the seven days to November 14, up week-on-week from 484.5.

The rate for 10 to 19-year-olds is 694.2, up from 571.7. The figures, from the UK Health Security Agency (HSA), are likely to reflect the return of pupils to school after the half-term holiday in late October.
