Follows recommendation made in Covid Review
Schools should be more involved in planning for future emergency situations.
That's the view of the Department of Education, Sport and Culture following a recommendation from the author of the Covid review, which looked at the Island's response to the pandemic.
Kate Brunner KC said the DESC should ensure students' voices are heard and called for a written plan to be developed for school closures.
