Cambodian schools to re-open in stages from August

[geovalin]

August will finally see the reopening of schools which has been shuttered for months now. The Education Ministry said that it is in the process of re-opening schools, after more than three month of shutdown as part of the effort to combat COVID-19.

 

Other Education officers meanwhile told Khmer Times on conditions of confidentiality that about 15 ‘high-quality’ private international schools, including Japanese, English, American and French institutes, with approximately 20,000 students will be allowed to reopen first as a test case. Ministry spokesman Ros Soveacha told Khmer Times today that the process will be divided into three phases based on health safety standards of the schools.

 

“The first phase will include schools with high safety standards [preventive measures against the virus spread],” Mr Soveacha said. “The second phase will focus on schools with moderate standards and the third will be schools with minimum standards. Each class must have not more than 15 students and social distancing must be strictly enforced and other areas where contact may take place, must also be eliminated.”
