All Schools will have Sanitization Sessions

Among the measures that will be implemented at the classroom level is a daily sanitization of individual seating areas.  According to Dr. Babb, there will also be someone stationed at the entrance of every school building to ensure that proper procedures, including hand washing are followed prior to entering the compound.

“Classrooms will be cleaned and disinfected daily and between sessions and breaks.  Regular hand washing and other hygiene practices will be implemented.  Students’ desks or their furniture will be seated three to six feet apart while in class.  In cases where all students can’t be accommodated, especially in very big schools, they will have to implement a shift system or an alternate day or week.  And that is something that the managements will submit to the ministry and we will review those and advise them.  We are also going to ensure that at the entrance of a school there is someone who will monitor those who enter the school.  There will be a sanitization session where they will have to wash their hands and there will be paper towels available to ensure that we are practicing safety measures.”
