All over the world schools has been closed and they had extended layoff due to COVID-19. In some parts of the world such as Africa, the cases of coronavirus infections are still rising. In the developed countries where they say the cases have been reduced there is a second wave of re-infection. France and South Korea once opened schools but they closed them within a week due to re-infection crises.

According to  CTV News

Parents are left with a challenging dilemma: Do I send my child to class and risk infection, or do I keep them at home and risk them potentially falling behind?

The Zimbabwean government’s decision to reopen classes in July has been a contentious one, with health experts and teachers’ associations indicating that it’s still too early, given that the cases in Zimbabwe are increasing.

Factors to consider:

  1. The health system in Zimbabwe in case your child contracts the virus
  2. The response rate in which the responsible authority do when a case has been reported
  3. Infrastructure and school resources. Some schools in rural areas due to scarcity of resources they share: desks, books and pens.
  4. Transport to ferry children to and from school will they practice social distancing?
  5. Will it not be an opportunity for other people to take advantage of school children due to lake of transport and food. (exposure to all kinds of risks)
  6. How protected will be your children outside the home.
  7. Do all schools have sanitizers
  8. Do all schools have first aid in case of emergence
  9. Just a reminder children will use the same toilets, tape, furniture in their large numbers
  10. Will teachers be able to control and pay attention to all the children to avoid physical contact
  11. Is a classroom setting going to improve your child’s learning or kill your child with coronavirus
  12. Will my children fall behind if I choose to keep them at home
  13. Will sending children to school in this era not affect them mentally?
