The decision to open schools when the government eased the lockdown became a contentious issue that split opinions and ended up in the courts. That is despite the fact learners had lost 70 percent of their school year. This highlights the general fear parents and stakeholders feel about the Covid 19 pandemic. The fear and worry are, of course, justified.
Schools must consistently observe the country’s overall COVID-19 health guidelines to protect students, staff, teachers, as well as their families.
A few measures that schools are taking include:
- 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 central to keeping students and teachers safe
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.
