Educational institutions with their own hospitals and clinics, will, however, be equipped with the necessary personal protective equipment, and have isolation centres to deal with any positive cases.

The Ministry of Education and the Ghana Education Service with support from the government will also be embarking on fumigation and disinfection exercise in schools ahead of the reopening of schools.

President Nana Akuffo Addo, in his 21 updates on measures taken against the spread of the coronavirus, also permits religious activities for students at schools under the new protocols.
