If the repeated year is to be done, then there will need to be resourses in place for a "double sized" school year as year 1 repeat year 1 and the nursery children begin year 1.
I don't know the answer yet, and I don't think anyone else does yet either, but you do well to raise it and if this goes on long enough the possibility of schools having to effectively repeat all or part of this year will have to be looked at with resources reconfigured as one year is effectively missing and the next one doubled.
