The students at the English school back on Tuesday

"The Government and the Public Health Authority have obviously been clear that students in primary school should go to school physically if they are healthy," says school principal Simon Varley.

The English school made the decision about distance education when the concerns about the new corona virus were greatest and many students and staff were absent. The school's leisure time has been open to students for up to eleven years, but the students' teaching has also taken place there via computer.

- Distance education has gone surprisingly well. We have received good feedback from both parents and students, says Simon Varley.

But now the students return to school on Tuesday.

- On Monday we have a study day where we will go through some routines with the staff.

Some of the teachers will continue to take care of teaching from home.

- A few teachers and students will continue to work from home. But then they must belong to a risk group and have a medical certificate, says Simon Varley.

In these classrooms, there will then be other staff on site physically.

According to the headmaster of the English school, sick leave is low among both students and staff. In order to reduce the risk of contagion at school, a number of measures will be taken when the students now return.

- We urge both teachers and students to wash and spray their hands when they come to school in the morning. Then we will keep the living rooms closed, so that all students may be out on the breaks, says Simon Varley.

The school will also limit the number of seats in the dining room and also use the gymnasium as a lunch room.
