The Minister of Education and Science was asked Friday on TVP Info, among others o returning students to full-time schooling, and whether they will all return to school in May.
If the downward trend continues and the downward dynamics of Coronavirus III continue, then There is a good chance that May will be the month we will return to full-time studies. There is a good chance if the rate of decrease in the infection continues Kazarnik replied.
When asked when the final decision will be made, he indicated that on Thursday he signed a decree on returning to blended learning in 11 provinces.
Hybrid, i.e. a maximum of 50 percent. Students in a day in school and at least 50 per cent. In distance learning Minister explained. He pointed out that these were students in grades 1-3 in primary schools.
Next week, we’ll keep you updated on what’s going to happen in May – Head of MEiN announced.
The Minister of Education and Science was also asked whether the decision to return students to school would be a healthy one.
Everything is stipulated in the guidelines prepared with the Head of the Health Inspectorate and the Ministry of Health. We will make final decisions on the final details of restrictions before we go back to school, but we have all the materials on it ready today Czarnik emphasized.
He also referred to the question about the situation when a case of coronavirus was discovered after returning to full-time education in a school.
It will be just as it did in the last months of full-time education in grades 1-3 and as it does today in kindergarten. Today I can provide data on the kindergarten after the children return to it on Monday. 15,222 facilities are operating normally, and 12 facilities decided to switch to the remote system due to some outbreaks of infection that occurred in these kindergartens.The minister said.

There are regulations in force for a long time, which allow and even oblige school principals and educational institutions, in agreement with the Health Inspection Department, to switch to the hybrid or remote mode when an outbreak of the Coronavirus occurs. Managers are aware of this, as well as in practice He said.
From Monday, kindergartens and pre-school education departments – kindergarten and other forms of preschool education, after a three-week vacation, are operating again throughout the country, in addition to nurseries and clubs for young children.
