Ministry enlisting parents to help protect younger learners

With public schooling set to reopen for face-to-face learning next week, parents of the youngest learners are being asked by the Education Ministry to step forward and offer all necessary support.

Speaking at a press briefing on Friday, Assistant Chief Education Officer (Nursery) Samantha Williams encouraged parents to take all nursery school children to school on scheduled days.

She had already announced that only 41 of the 348 nursery schools will open for full face-to-face interactions, while the others will operate on a rotation system, which will see year one and year two learners attending school on different days during the week.
