BTU Welcomes Decision To Delay Re-Opening For Some Grades

The decision to have different levels not to open at the same time was taken by both Ministry of Basic Education and Teachers Unions. The Monitor has learnt that the assessment of school environment will be on going this week as the schools re-opens. Both the Ministry and Teachers Unions have formed a committee to keep on assessing school environment and the spread of the virus in schools. “We have been part of this arrangement.

The reason behind this arrangement is that we have observed gatherings during festive season. As you may know, schools have high numbers of students and the virus could easily spread therefore at primary schools, we will have time to make standard ones to get used to school environment and how to get used to keep on putting on a mask.
