Back to school for some, clubbing for others in Spain as restrictions relaxtravelUpdated: Jun 09, 2020 19:39 ISTPupils returned to school in some areas of Spain on Monday and nightclubs opened in others in a further easing of the country’s coronavirus lockdown. Spain, which has suffered one of the world’s worst COVID-19 outbreaks, imposed strict confinement measures in March but has been gradually reopening its hard-hit economy since May, with different regions progressing at different speeds. Some schools in the capital Madrid reopened for primary pupils on Monday and seniors preparing for university-entrance exams will return on Tuesday. Nightclubs reopened in much of Spain though a widely mocked ban on dancing will be enforced to prevent infections. Bar owners in Madrid were also preparing to reopen as restrictions on indoor seating were lifted.
