....so I accept I may be missing something but isn't it all down to school kids not being tested any more? |  |

You would expect it to spread within the households of those who contracted it and also by those infected but not showing symptoms. |
Maybe but I probably was in close contact with several dozen to low hundreds of people at the Euros final, the tube, chaos on Wembley way. In the 15 days following I was only in close contact with one.
Scale that up and bearing in mind, I'm no virologist or human geographer but several dozen is more than one. |  |

Because all the people I know who got it at the final including me spent the next 5 days in bed and not spreading it. |
And people who contract Covid somewhere other than Wembley do something different to that? |  |

No.
The amount of testing dropped by c.10%, which is part of it.
But the main surveillance studies are showing a plateauing of infections too.

Having seen the evidence posted from PCR test data, this does look promising.
Is there a suggestion that warmer weather helps? Didn't we have a drop in cases last summer too? |  |

I think there is an underestimation of the amount of transmission in schools... basically, a massive group of unvaccinated, low symptom carriers, being forced together for 7 hours a day.
This has now stopped, and was winding down in the last couple of weeks, as schools closed early, and parents took kids out to avoid holiday cancellations. We may see a small rise from the losening of restrictions, but from what I have seen, a lot of people are still being pretty cautious. |  |
