the relaxed health protocol in schools at the start of the school year

The Minister of National Education, Jean-Michel Blanquer, announced on Friday February 11 a relaxation of health measures in schools, in consultation with the unions. Three main changes are to observe. “On the one hand, the lifting of the wearing of the mask outside in the playground, on the other hand the reduction in the number of self-tests for students in contact cases, (…) and finally the certificate on the honor which certifies that a result is negative, will also disappear”explains journalist Christophe Gascard, in duplex from the Ministry of National Education.

The implementation of this new protocol is set for the start of the February holidays, zone by zone. It will thus enter into force on Monday February 21 for zone B, and on February 28 for self-tests.
