NUTP: Schools ready for reopening


PETALING JAYA: Schools have been preparing for reopening since the start of this year and are ready to welcome pupils back for face-to-face learning, said National Union of the Teaching Profession (NUTP) secretary-general Harry Tan Huat Hock.Although schools are ready for the March 1 reopening, the union – which has 220,000 members – hopes the government will consider implementing a rotational system to ensure schools with a large student enrolment will be able to adhere strictly to the Covid-19 standard operating procedure.

This rotational system is also proposed by Melaka Action Group for Parents in Education chairman Mak Chee Kin, who suggests that students at different levels take turns studying in school and from home on different days of the week.
