The start of the school year will take place on Tuesday 1er September. How will it unfold in view of the health developments on the island? We asked the prefect of Saint-Martin on Wednesday morning during a press conference. "It is still too early to tell ”, she replied, specifying that she is waiting to see if the curve in the number of cases will soon stagnate or continue to increase. One thing is certain : "The re-entry will not take place under so-called normal conditions», She affirmed. Nevertheless the authorized will get down to making it happen "in the best conditions».

The services of the prefecture should soon meet those of the Collectivity on this subject. A point must be made with the National Education. The main question is whether groups of students will be formed again, a decision that can be made locally.

Throughout the national territory, the restriction of mixing between classes and groups of students is no longer mandatory in schools, colleges and high schools as is physical distancing in playgrounds and in classrooms according to the new protocol. health published a dozen days ago by the Ministry of National Education. However, if the situation deteriorates, reception restrictions or closures may be justified. In that case "an educational continuity plan has been disseminated ”, specifies the Ministry of Education.

What is certain to date is the obligation to wear the mask for middle and high school students in closed spaces as well as outside as well as for staff, regardless of the establishments where they work. "It is not compulsory for the teaching staff when they are teaching and are at a distance of at least one meter from the pupils. It is also not compulsory during kindergarten lessons», Specifies the ministry.

Regarding nursery school students, wearing a mask "is to be banned". For elementary school students, it is not recommended.

As for the other barrier gestures, they must be applied at all times. Hand washing with soap and water must be carried out on arrival in the establishment, before each meal, before and after recess. (soualigapost.com)
