The UK plans to reopen zoos, safari parks and theaters as part of an easing of restrictions imposed by the coronavirus pandemic.
This move by Prime Minister Boris Johnson also met with criticism as well as the announcement that it is not possible to reopen primary schools before the summer as planned.
Although many elementary schools are open to students whose parents work in key positions, Prime Minister Johnson's government wanted to give all students the opportunity to return to school after several months of attending classes from home.
However, schools did not have enough space to respond to requests related to social distancing.
Authorities say they hope the reopening of parks and zoos will help families spend time outside, where the chance of contracting the virus is much lower.
London Zoo and other attractions across the country have warned they will collapse unless they get help soon.
