Osun State Government on Monday said that schools across the state are set to reopen on September 21, 2020.
This was contained in a communique by Mrs Funke Egbemode, Commissioner for Information and Civic Orientation, after State Executive Council meeting.
According to Egbemode, stakeholders should continue to formulate safety protocols towards the reopening of schools in line with guidelines by Federal Ministry of Education.
She said the resumption will be in phases with effect from September 21 for an abridged third term of the 2019/2020 academic session.
The statement partly read, “Having conducted an assessment of schools within the State to ascertain the level of preparations for reopening, the government has scheduled schools to resume from the COVID-19 break on September 21st for an abridged third term of the 2019/2020 academic session, which is expected to end on October 30, 2020.
“To make up for lost grounds caused by the COVID-19 induced lockdown, a new academic session (2020/2021 session) is scheduled to commence on November 9, 2020.
“Because of the Yuletide, schools will be expected to take a brief recess from December 24, 2020, to resume on January 4, 2021, for the concluding part of the first term of the new session which is scheduled to end January 22, 2021.”
