Singapore students have to start using either the government’s contact-tracing token or mobile app from December as the city-state seeks to resume more activities amid the pandemic.
The implementation of the entrance requirement to schools will be enforced for children age seven and above, and when they all have had a chance to collect the state-issued tokens or download the app, the Ministry of Education said Nov 2, according to updated guidelines on its website. The policy follows an earlier announcement that the "TraceTogether” technology must be used at popular venues like local restaurants, offices and shopping malls by December.
