The following adaptations to transport to and from school should be implemented to limit unnecessary exposure of school or staff members.
-
Promote and put in place respiratory and hand hygiene, physical distancing measures and use of masks in transportation such as school buses, in accordance with local policy.
-
Provide tips for how to safely commute to and from school, including for public transportation.
-
Organize only one child per seat and ensure physical distancing of at least 1 meter between passengers in school buses, if possible. This may require more school buses per school.
-
If possible and safe, keep the windows of the buses, vans, and other vehicles open.
