School leaders are calling for clear guidance ahead of any widespread school closures, as the number of coronavirus cases in the UK continues to rise.
The Association of School and College Leaders (ASCL) says its members are facing questions from anxious families.
The Department for Education in England is advising all schools to stay open and says its coronavirus helpline for education staff is offering advice.
Exam regulators are urging schools to prepare for public exams as normal.
Ahead of ASCL's annual general conference in Birmingham, on Friday, general secretary Geoff Barton said school and college leadership teams were having to make contingency plans for possible closures, without knowing if, when or for how long their school might close.
Mr Barton said with the Easter holidays looming, many school leaders would like more reassurance about contingency plans for closures.
