National COE pronounced this Monday on the face-to-face return to classes in the face of the epidemiological situation in the country and the new resolutions in the face of the rise in infections in Ecuador. At the press conference, the issue of the vaccination certificate in land transport was also mentioned.
The Minister of Education, María Brown, pointed out that on early childhood education services, for students aged 3 and 4 years or under regulated by the Ministry of Education, establishments must abide by the following provisions:
The fiscal establishments will suspend the service to guarantee that their teachers can access the third dose, from January 10 to 16. In other words, this provision that was adopted for fiscal establishments at other educational levels is ratified or expanded.
Private, fiscal, and municipal establishments may suspend services and recover them at the end of the school year or agree with families to provide support from a distance. That is, it is not necessarily virtual modality. If not, it is recommended to give the little ones playful activities so that they can work on them with their parents or recommendations that educators can make.
