Following today's announcement that face masks will once again be required in all enclosed spaces as of noon on Friday, the Ministry has clarified the regulations for schools and educational institutions.
Face masks will now be required in classrooms and in all other enclosed spaces on school grounds.
Similarly, masks will be required on school transportation, while taking matriculation examinations, and during all school activities that take place in enclosed areas.
Parents and all other non-staff members will still be permitted to enter school buildings, of course only wearing face masks.
End-of-year events including PTA meetings, parties, and all other gatherings will take place as usual without restrictions on the number of those permitted to participate - with all participants wearing face masks.
