This article is a Preprint
Preprints are preliminary research reports that have not been certified by peer review. They should not be relied on to guide clinical practice or health-related behavior and should not be reported in news media as established information.
Preprints posted online allow authors to receive rapid feedback and the entire scientific community can appraise the work for themselves and respond appropriately. Those comments are posted alongside the preprints for anyone to read them and serve as a post publication assessment.

ABSTRACT
Here we analyse the epidemiological trend of the incidence of COVID-19 in children in Catalonia (Spain) during the first 20 weeks of the 2020-2021 school year. This study demonstrates that while schools were open the incidence rate among children remained significantly lower than in general population, despite a greater diagnostic effort in children. These results suggest that schools have not played a significant role in the SARS-CoV-2 dissemination in Catalonia.
