NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian says children will return to school campuses one day a week from week three of term two.
"And then progressively two days, and then we hope by the end of term two we'll be in a position to have students going back to school in a full-time capacity by term three," she said.
"There will be flexibility and discretion on a school level as to how they implement this," she said. She said"enhanced measures" would also be introduced in response to the virus outbreak which includes extra cleaning, sanitiser, forehead thermometers and extra equipment in sick bays. Ms Berejiklian said parents should monitor their children for any symptoms of coronavirus and keep them at home even if they were mildly ill.
