Will instruction be postponed at schools, Minister Nagavci says his final word

Nagavci, among other things, has said that closing schools has brought great consequences to children.

Through a Facebook post, the minister said the only solution to this situation remains the vaccine of teachers and administrative workers.

“As we have warned, the lesson is expected to begin on September 1st. We aim to keep the schools open and the instruction under regular time and physical participation in school institutions.

This is also because all studies show that the effects on children because of the closing of schools have been large”, Nagavci wrote.

She added that during this time safeguards must be applied aimed at preventing from spreading the virus.

Also based on recommendations for long-term education COVIID-19 launched in June 2021 by the Technical Consultative Group (founded by World Health Organization Regional Director for the Europe Region), the primary objective should be keeping open and functional schools, and accompanying strategies such as applying protective measures from infection. In order not to repeat our situation last year, the only solution is to vaccinate teachers and administrative workers”, Nagavci wrote.
