“I’m late again …” Confusion in the school field, self-help measures like remote schooling for some schools
Due to a group infection that occurred at the Itaewon Club in Seoul, the school gate, which was scheduled to open in 73 days, is in danger of being closed again. The quarantine authority said it would decide whether to go to high school after observing the results of the epidemiological investigation.
Park Neung-hu, the first director of the Central Headquarters for Disaster Security Response, said at a regular briefing held at the Seoul Metropolitan Government on 10, “The Itaewon Club group infection is still in the early stages. of epidemiological research. . In addition, he added, “We will analyze the results of more epidemiological investigations for 2 to 3 days (10 to 12 days) and we will make an exhaustive judgment.”
Lee Sang-soo, curriculum policy officer at the Ministry of Education, said: “We are open to various possibilities regarding whether to change the academic schedule for high school, and we are working closely with the quarantine authorities. It is scheduled. Additionally, the DOE has not attempted to request a postponement of school attendance regarding the infection from the Itaewon Club group.
The school site was in great confusion due to a group infection that erupted in front of the school. In particular, there is a loud voice that fears that the delay in attending school will cause a major setback in preparing for admission to high school. A high school principal in Seoul said, “Middle school 3 is really urgent.” “There are a lot of students who are disadvantaged on time, and then I have to put more weight on them.” He was frustrated. If high school attendance (planned for Jan. 13) is postponed for more than two days, chances are high that the national academic assessment scheduled for Jan. 14 will be delayed or collapse.
“I want to go to school because of the entrance exam, and I want to postpone it a little longer because I’m anxious.” “Since I’m free from the entrance exam, it’s an answer that I don’t mind if I postpone attending school.” Attendance hours announced by the Ministry of Education start from high school 3 on May 13 △ △ May 20 high 2, middle 3, elementary 1, 2, kindergarten △ May 27 high 1, middle 2, early 3, 4 △ June 1 of 1, 5 · 6 per second.
Since the Ministry of Education allowed to delay the delay in attending school, some schools are considering considering self-help measures in accordance with the spread of the group infection. The head of a high school in Gyeonggi province said, “If there are a lot of opinions about going to school tomorrow (11) to postpone school attendance, we will think about how to go back to remote classes for a while instead of going to school as scheduled. ”
Most quarantine experts indicated that the schedule for attending school should be postponed. Eom Jung-sik, professor of infectious medicine at Gachon University Gil Hospital, said: “It is impossible to get students to attend school when it is difficult to judge how much the Itaewon club group infection has spread to the community.” . I said. The day before, Professor Um told his social media service (SNS) that “(the school) is pouring oil on the dismissed house.” Lee Jae-gap, professor of infectious medicine at Hallym University’s Gangnam Sacred Heart Hospital, also advised: “If quarantine authorities can control the situation until next week, students should go to school.”
“It is desirable to judge student attendance by looking at the Itaewon Club situation, but if the government promotes student attendance on a schedule, it should be operated only in the morning to reduce the time they spend together as much as possible.” I emphasized.
