On the 1stMay 2020, the Taoiseach announced as part of the “Roadmap for Reopening Society and Business” that schools will commence opening on a phased basis at the beginning of the 2020/2021 academic year.
The Department is currently working with the Education Partners and relevant stakeholders in planning for this re-opening which will be based on public health advice.
