Full return to face to face classes for new school term

When the new school term starts on September 19th, all students will be returning in full to the classroom for face to face classes.

The official announcement came from Minister of Education, Technological and Vocational Training Kay McConney during a press conference this afternoon. She says the decision was made after several meetings with stakeholders and partners, including the Ministry of Health and Wellness.

The school day will also return to pre-pandemic scheduling – for example schools which used to be in operation from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. will return to that time.

In addition, all extra curricular activities will resume. However, the mask mandate remains in effect, with some accommodations.
