Are school open as normal in your country? What is the point of avoiding social contact while kids are mixing with god knows who, parents are mingling

at school gates, teachers doing the same while theatres, cinemas and other places of social gathering are closed.
Surely the solution is to close schools, assume that the summer holiday is early while this term is postponed, then return as normal when the epidemic is in decline?
Why are governments deliberately allowing the outbreak to reach a bigger peak than necessary?

Countries should make sure that not only schools are closed, because then people are going to act as if this is a holiday and start traveling, going out to play, gathering at cafés etc... Everything needs to close down and people to start working from home as much as possible. Closing one thing isn't going to save anyone, people need to stay home as a general rule and socially distance themselves from one another.
