Nova Scotia has extended the holiday break for students, the latest province to keep children out of school buildings longer amid a rise in COVID-19 infections driven by the Omicron variant.

Robert Strang, Nova Scotia’s Chief Medical Officer of Health, acknowledged the ongoing debate among families, educators and doctors about a return to school. Education Minister Becky Druhan added that safety measures would be in place, including masking, limiting movement in school buildings and reducing numbers in places such as cafeterias.

Paul Wozney said that while school is the best place for students to learn, “remote learning that also provides a critical circuit break to community spread is preferable to rolling school closures and lengthy shutdowns and disruptions due to illness and isolation.”
