Coronavirus Northern Ireland: Childcare Recovery Plan and Education Restart FAQs available online
The Department of Education has published information on the childcare recovery plan and Education Restart programme which will align to form the basis for the return to school in August.
The information, which is published on the Department’s website in a question and answer format, provides an initial outline of both programmes and will be updated to address additional issues as and when they arise.
On 18 June, the Education Minister Peter Weir announced the publication of a Childcare Sector Recovery plan which aims to restore the childcare sector to pre-COVID-19 capacity levels as quickly as possible.
The Department’s Education Restart Programme, which identifies six priority work-streams to deliver reopening of schools, was also endorsed by the NI Executive on 18 June.
