Good news for school kids of New Zealand

face masks aren't mandatory in schools under alert level 2

It's mandatory in the US for secondary-age children to mask up in school, but states Texas, Arkansas and Arizona are challenging the rule.

In Scotland, masks in class are mandatory, until the end of September at least.

Britain and Wales no longer require them except on school buses - instead regular mass testing ensures everyone entering class is COVID-negative.
