Beginning Monday, Saskatchewan teachers will connect with students remotely to offer voluntary distance learning during the novel coronavirus pandemic, Global News has learned.
A memo sent Wednesday from Clint Repski, assistant deputy education minister, said most school staff will be able to work from home, and teachers “should employ multiple modes of delivery as available to them.” A Ministry of Education spokesperson said school divisions will communicate all information about learning options available to students and families.
Regardless of the division, grades will be divided into five groups: prekindergarten, kindergarten to Grade 3, grades 4 to 6, grades 7 to 9 and grades 10-12.
