Toronto District School Board has laid out additional, stricter COVID-19 protocols for students and staff returning to school than what the province issued two weeks ago.In the document — and with 86 per cent of students opting for in-person learning starting this academic year — the TDSB outlined how its requirements for staff and students differ from the ministry of education’s guidance in certain settings.For example, for recess and breaks outdoors, the ministry said students do not need to stay within their cohorts but physical distancing must be maintained.
However, the TDSB amended that guideline for elementary students who must continue to take breaks within their cohorts with physical distancing.
