Daycare centre operators in a reopening quandary


PETALING JAYA: Early childhood educators are urging the government to give clearer guidelines for kindergartens, daycare centres, nurseries and the like operating in states under Phases One and Two of the National Recovery Plan (NRP).

With full vaccination of employees now being a requirement for these centres to operate, educators are questioning whether those that have already opened previously for children of frontliners must now close again if their staff are not fully immunised against Covid-19.
