Omicron｜Primary school principal: Prepare for class suspension, but worry about the impact of primary six students

The mutant virus Omicron is on the rise, and the community has seen multiple chains of transmission. The fifth wave of the epidemic is imminent. The principal of Anglican Renli Memorial Primary School, Yu Yinyin, admitted that she is mentally prepared to suspend classes at any time, and she is even ready to switch to online exams and online travel. However, the sixth graders will face the third sub-examination. It is hoped that the epidemic will be brought under control as soon as possible, and face-to-face teaching will not be suspended, and teachers and students will have time to spend more time with each other before the primary six students graduate.

She said that the school has learned from the experience of class suspension. At the beginning of the semester, it has designed physical and online class timetables, and issued an "IT Handbook" to parents in advance.

There are multiple transmission chains in the community. The only month is the academic examination season, and the Lunar New Year holiday is approaching. Some people propose to suspend face-to-face teaching and let students take the Lunar New Year holiday earlier.

Although the Education Bureau said last night (7th) that the face-to-face teaching arrangement would be temporarily maintained, Yu Yinyin, the principal of Renli Memorial Primary School of Sheng Kung Hui, bluntly said that the current wave of the epidemic has come urgently, and she has been psychologically prepared or needs to suspend classes. Tests will be affected.

She said that after learning from the experience of several suspensions of classes during the epidemic, at the beginning of the semester, the teaching schedule of each subject was adjusted, and the "connected classes" of major subjects were added.

Even the seasonal school uniform arrangements and Easter trips have been prepared to be carried out online, "you can travel to Japan online".

In terms of classroom arrangement, Yu Yinyin said that the school had purchased the software and hardware required for video teaching last summer, and also used funds to purchase additional online learning platforms for different subjects, so that students could have more online self-learning resources.

In order to maintain students' social interaction, the school adopts "blended teaching", that is, outside the classroom, it also uses google classroom to conduct interactive discussions, distribute teaching resources and teaching videos, etc.

Even the school uniforms are arranged for changing seasons, and the school has also made arrangements for online purchase.

As for extracurricular activities such as debate and stem courses, they are carried out in a "1:3" format, that is, one physical class and three online classes. Yu Yinyin explained that she hopes that teachers and students will have the opportunity to get to know each other face-to-face.

Even the school uniforms are arranged for changing seasons, and the school has also made arrangements for online purchase.

In addition, in order to facilitate the handling of school affairs and strengthen communication with parents, the school adopts the GRWTH electronic communication platform. The platform grouping function allows teachers to release emergency messages and the latest arrangements. If parents have not read the message or "have not read it back", the system will remind Teacher "Flesh Tracking".

Even though everything is ready, Yu Yinyin still hopes that the epidemic will be brought under control, and "there will be time to accompany the primary six students before graduation and leaving school."
