Why so few online lessons for state pupils?

Gavin Williamson says he's "absolutely signed up" to bringing every child in every year group back to school in the autumn. He promises to consult workers across the education sector.

Asked about a lack of interactive learning via video conferencing in state schools during the lockdown, he says some are providing "excellent" lessons in this way. More than 12 million lessons have been downloaded in the last few weeks, he adds.

Providing online access and the "Covid catch-up plan" are part of a "long-term project" to improve access, Mr Willamson says.

Schools are giving "amazing support" for children, the education secretary adds.
