The Ministry of Education (MOE) and Ministry of Social and Family Development (MSF) on Tuesday (24 March) has issued an advisory on two additional precautionary measures for preschool and primary school students in light of the recent spike in imported cases of Covid-19 in the republic.
Two additional precautionary measures
Students staying in the same household as a person who has returned to Singapore from any country from Wednesday, March 25, 2020, 11.59pm, will be placed on 14-day Leave of Absence (LOA).
Students staying in the same household as a person who had returned to Singapore from the UK, US or ASEAN countries on or after March 14, 2020, will be placed on LOA. The student’s LOA will start from the day the person in the household returned to Singapore.
These measures are in addition to the earlier announced 14-day LOA issued to students and staff of schools, preschools and student care centres if they returned from overseas on or after March 14.
Employers are encouraged to provide flexible work arrangements for their employees to accommodate such exceptional circumstances.
