"It is the only thing on which I take position because I do not want to enter the controversy today (...) We must stick together in this drama", but "I do not see how we can reopen schools on May 11, "said the former minister during a press conference. "We see what we do with our two schools" still open "for the children of caregivers and emergency personnel, we keep our distance, we wash their hands constantly (...) it went very well , but there are ten or less per class, "she said.

"It is not possible to deconfigure children"

Whereas in normal classes, "we have 23, 24 children, sometimes more or less" and "we do not see how we can accommodate these children in the same class while keeping distances and rules ... so we are very doubtful, "she added. "I am simply saying to the government 'it is not possible to deconfigure children'," she insisted. "We do not know how to do under current conditions" but "we will do everything to apply what we are asked if we can do it," she continued.
