webfact Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 Schools tentatively set to reopen as normal on August 13th Students have their temperatures checked and receive hand sanitiser to disinfect their hands as they arrive at the Makkasan Phitthaya government secondary school in Bangkok on July 1, 2020, as schools reopened after being temporarily closed due to the threat of the COVID-19 novel coronavirus. – Children across Thailand, some of whom have been kept at home under self-quarantine by their parents due to coronavirus fears, have now returned to their classrooms as all schools reopen in the country, though authorities recommended that class sizes be restricted to 20-25 students while doorknobs, desks and other areas at risk of spreading infection be sanitised frequently throughout the day. (Photo by Romeo GACAD / AFP) A panel of the CCSA has agreed to allow schools to reopen as normal, tentatively on August 13th, without the need for social distancing, but students will be required to keep a daily record of where they go after school. The Office of Basic Education Commission (OBEC) proposed the normal reopening of 4,500 schools under its supervision to the CCSA, now that the COVID-19 situation in Thailand has improved, without a single case of local infection for more than two months. During the easing of lockdown measures, the schools were partially reopened, with students attending classes on alternate days or weeks, to reduce congestion in classes.

LazySlipper Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 (edited) They expect kids who can't even do a slither of homework to man up and take responsibility and note down where they are going? REALLY? Edited August 10, 2020 by LazySlipper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
