Minister of Education Priya Manikchand has announced that dorm students at public schools must be re-tested before returning for the second term.
In an interview last Thursday with the Department of Public Information (DPI), Manickchand said the second school term will follow similar protocols as seen in the previous term. Specifically for dorm students, she said “it’s going to be a little bit different for the dorms, again, because we have to, again, determine that nobody is coming into the dorms with an infection or with a positive COVID result.”
A Ministry of Health spokesperson told this newspaper that the testing has started.
