The Federal Government has given state governments and school administrators the privilege to determine when schools can reopen in their various states. What this means is that it is left for the various state governors to announce the date schools will resume in their various states.
However, States and school heads are to conduct a risk assessment to ensure that their states and schools are in the right condition to reopen.
For instance, they are to ensure classrooms are large enough or used in such a manner that will take care of social distancing. Provision should be made for isolation centres and other necessary equipment. Hostels should not be overcrowded as not to make students vulnerable.
All these and other ones like provision of water for handwashing, provision of hand sanitizers, as well as other guidelines are to be put in place by schools before resumption.
Many states have already announced their resumption date for academic activities while some are yet to make an announcement on that.
Please note that Universities that are under ASUU may not resume since ASUU is still on strike.
