No event in modern history has disrupted the education system anywhere near what the Covid-19 pandemic has done. Last year, only 70% of the learning students were supposed to receive was possible, a result of the school shutdowns the government ordered to arrest the spiralling Covid-19 infections. The rest has been incorporated into this year’s curriculum.
This year, the school term again started later than normal because of the most recent lockdown. To avoid further disruptions, schools need to be consistent with the country’s overall COVID-19 health response 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
Stationary at school has been identified as a Covid-19 risk factor
Hygiene and social distancing protocols also need to be strictly adhered to at schools to prevent the spread of Covid-19. Frequently touched objects and surfaces must be cleaned hourly with diluted bleach disinfectant when in use, while classrooms must be properly ventilated and disinfected at least twice a day.
