After a switch to remote classes prompted by the COVID-19 epidemic, children in grades 1 to 3 of elementary education will be able to return to on-site learning on Monday, Poland's education minister Przemysław Czarnek has said.
He added that under sanitary rules for schools, lessons will be held in one room for one group, with breaks for different classes held at different times.
Czarnek said that he would like all pupils to return to on-site learning, especially those preparing for their final matura school exams, but that depended on the epidemiological situation in the country.
He added that “distance learning can never replace regular lessons.”
