코로나19 오미크론 변이가 극성인 가운데 NSW주는 개학을 앞두고 방역수칙을 발표했다. 마스크 착용은 물론이고 전 학생들과 교사 및 직원에게 최소 1주일에 2회의 신속항원검사 (RAT)를 의무화했다.
또한 차일드케어 센터나 프리스쿨 교사들의 마스크 착용도 의무화한다.
이에 주정부는 소속 3천여 학교에 4백만여개의 킷을 공급했다.
NSW주 보건당국 챈트 수석의료관은 ‘학생에게 증상이 있을시 등교하지 말 것’과 ‘자가검진시 1차검사에 음성이 나와도 2차검사까지 음성일 때 등교할 수 있다’고 했다.
NSW 도미니크 페로테이 주총리는 학생들에게 양성반응이 있어도 임시 휴교나 수업 파행은 없을 것이라고 강조했다.
한편 빅토리아주 교육당국은 유사한 방침과 교사들에게 의무적으로 부스터 샷을 접종하도록 했다.
NSW – Info for parents: be COVID-smart for the start of school
| Watch for symptoms If your child is unwell, even with mild symptoms you must keep them home and get them tested. If they display any symptoms they should take a PCR test (nose and throat swab) or rapid antigen test (RAT). If symptoms continue your child should stay home and take another RAT or PCR test in 24 hours. If that test is also negative, your child may return to school if another diagnosis is confirmed such as hay fever. Vaccinations All staff on school sites must be fully vaccinated. We strongly encourage all students and their families to get vaccinated. Children aged 5 to 11 can now get vaccinated. Parents are encouraged to book their child in for a vaccination at the first available opportunity. Once eligible, all adults are encouraged to get booster shots. |
| COVID-19 positive cases If your child has no symptoms and there is a positive case in their class, year or other grouping, they can continue to attend school in line with NSW Health advice. Staff and students who get a positive rapid antigen test result must register it on service.nsw.gov.au or the Service NSW app as soon as possible. Staff and students who receive a positive rapid antigen or PCR test result must tell their school as soon as possible, and follow NSW Health advice.Schools will regularly communicate to parents about the presence and impact of COVID-19 in their community. Parents should expect to be provided with details of any impacted year groups or cohorts. |
| Visitors Visitors on school sites should be kept to a minimum to support essential school activities or student needs. Visitors will be required to wear a mask indoors and will be encouraged to wear a mask outdoors if they cannot maintain physical distancing. Schools are advised to allow a maximum of 2 parents or carers per student onto school grounds for Kindergarten orientation or Year 7 transition. Keeping schools open Parents are asked to respect the rules at their child’s school to help keep the community safe. Schools will do everything they can to maintain continuity of face-to-face learning including the use of more casual staff. Schools will need to make localised staffing decisions to ensure appropriate supervision can be maintained. Schools will not be able to guarantee particular staff for any cohort and students may not have their regular teacher for a class. Learning from home We will continue to monitor the situation and where face-to-face learning is not possible, learning from home options will be supported for short periods.
