Temperature check via thermal scanners will be mandatory at the entry gate of the school and wearing masks will be necessary for children as well as staff members. Students need to sanitize their hands before entering school.

School heads have also been asked to ensure that all teachers and staff members coming to the school are vaccinated.

At schools where vaccination and ration distribution is being carried out, the academic activity area has to be separate. For this, separate entry-exit points will be made and civil defence staff will be deployed.
