Mobitel Inner

All principals, teachers and non-academic staff of schools across the island will be vaccinated against COVID-19 from the 12th of July (Monday), Minister of Education Prof. G.L. Pieris said today.

 

Addressing a media briefing at the ministry, Prof. G.L. Pieris stated that a special virtual discussion was held with the governors of all provinces, provincial directors of education and health sector officials in this regard.

 

The time, date and venue of vaccination will be informed to the recipients in advance.

 

The age of school staff members will not be taken into account for vaccinations, as this is a move to expedite the reopening of schools, the education minister noted.
