As Government prepares to reopen all Public and private schools across the country, President Akufo-Addo has said there will be, for now, no mass gatherings and no sporting activities.
He said, religious activities for students at school, under the new protocols, will be permitted.
According to the President on his COVID -19 update, Social distancing and the wearing of face masks must become the norm in all schools, adding, the requisite provisions have been made to ensure that students at all levels of the education ladder receive the minimum number of contact hours upon their return to school.
He said” Before their return to school, Government, through the Ministry of Education and the Ghana Education Service, will ensure that all institutions, public and private, are fumigated and disinfected. Schools and institutions, with their hospitals and clinics, will be equipped with the necessary personal protective equipment, and have isolation centers to deal with any positive cases. All other schools and institutions, without their clinics and hospitals, have been mapped to health facilities.”
