In a special address to the House of Commons on Thursday, Health Secretary Matt Hancock said the local lockdown in Leicester will be partially relaxed, including for schools and early years childcare.
He told the Commons virus rates in the city “still remain well above the national average and the average for surrounding areas”.
He added: “We’re now in a position to relax some but not all of the restrictions that were in place.
“From July 24 we’ll be removing the restrictions on schools and early years childcare and taking a more targeted approach to the restrictions on non-essential retail.”
