I’ve posted this on another thread but will put it here as well-I think it’s quite interesting...
I’m on a FB page which has teachers from across the word on it who have been sharing good online teaching ideas since they’ve been closed. There is a lengthy thread today about how different countries are planning to manage reopening.
Denmark looks like it’s planning on having schools going back the soonest-mid April for some-with childcare/primary first, but strict hygiene practices and no more than 10 to a class, INCLUDING adults. They shut down promptly though so have had a much lower death rate there.
Most US states seem to have been told they will teach online until the end of the summer term and won’t reopen until September.
Some areas in China (who shut down on 10th January) are planning to reopen in the next few weeks, with high schools first, then middle, then elementary last. Others are opening for the two secondary exam years first and seeing how that goes.
Austrian schools are closed until the end of April and the government plan on opening small shops first to see what happens, and schools last.
Thai state schools are due to reopen in mid May for their next term, but won’t now until July 1st.
It’s a really interesting thread to read
