The Education Ministry has created a committee to evaluate the impact of Covid-19

The Education Ministry has created a committee to evaluate the impact of Covid-19 on non-university studies and adopt the necessary measures ahead of the new academic year.

Andalusian education officials said that schools across the region will return pupils to class rooms and that the regional government will conduct 143,000 tests on teachers, as well as hand out three million face masks a month.

The issue of whether and how to reopen schools in the autumn has proven a divisive issue in a country where powers over education are devolved to the regions.

In Madrid, the regional government recently issued instructions for reopening that school principals are describing as “impossible to observe.”
