“The fact that pupils are returning to school does not mean that we are going to spend the total hours as it used to be in the past. We are considering a little time of about three to four hours in school. This is to ensure that there is no room for children to go on break and play around the premises.
“And we have also discussed with our members that there should be staggered resumption . Staggered resumption means that if the JSS3 class comes to school by 8am, SSS3 can come by 9 am and the Primary 6 classes can come by 10am. This is to ensure that we don’t get the entrances and the exits crowded,” He said.
