Covid 19 pandemic: Printing services for schools
As schools opened after lockdown, both students and teachers came back to ‘new rules of engagement’. To avoid Covid-19 infection, they have to stay socially distanced at assembly, in canteens, in class, and everywhere else. Masks are now mandatory and sharing stationery and textbooks discouraged.
School reopenings needed to be consistent with the national COVID-19 health response to protect students, staff, teachers, as well as their families. A few other measures that schools are taking include to:
- Staggering the start and close of the school day
- Staggering mealtimes
- Moving classes to temporary spaces or outdoors
- Holding school in shifts, to reduce class size
Social distancing and sanitising key to keeping scholars and teachers safe from Covid 19
Hygiene and social distancing protocols also need to be strictly adhered to at schools to prevent the spread of Covid-19. Such as frequently touched objects and surfaces should be cleaned hourly with diluted bleach disinfectant when in use, classrooms must be properly ventilated and cleaned at least twice a day with a disinfectant.
While some things move into a digital format, schools and educational institutions still rely on quality print pieces that they can use as educational tools and resources for their students. Such as workbooks and curriculum guides, teacher lesson plans, report cards, and school calendars.
