8 h 38: The drastic conditions of the scientific council to reopen the schools on May 11

The Scientific Council, which "takes note" of the "political decision" to reopen schools, proposes a list of strict measures to adapt the rules of social distancing to the school environment. First point: the anti-splash mask, industrial or artisanal, must be mandatory in middle and high schools, for students and staff alike. "For middle school / high school students for whom understanding is good and education in wearing a mask is possible, wearing a mask must be compulsory", decides the Council, considering however the wearing of the mask "impossible" in kindergarten.

When they cannot wear a mask, especially during meals, "students and staff of educational establishments must organize themselves to respect the rule of social distancing". Schools, cleaned several times a day, should ensure that pupils in one class do not come across pupils in another class and avoid gatherings of children and parents at the entrance to schools. And, "if it is possible", that the students all have lunch in class, at their desks which will have to be set aside one meter in class. This is only part of the board's recommendations.
