In conjunction with the government’s decision to reopen schools in March, Unicef has released a report, Framework For Reopening Of Schools, with suggested guidelines to keep students and teachers safe during the pandemic.

Unicef believes that reopening schools in Malaysia is a good move but there needs to be a framework to safeguard the children’s health, education and future.
