Teaching in Iceland due to Covid 19

 


In the beginning of year 2022 the situation in Iceland due to Covid 19 have never been so bad from the start of the pandemic.  The Icelandic government decided not to let that affect the schools.  

All schools opened on 5. January.  Many students and teachers where in isolation or quarantine.  Our teachers in Menntaskólinn í Reykjavík decided to have as normal classes as can be.  Now we have Teams on so students at home can participate in the class.  Usually we have 10 – 30% of our students at home, but they attend classes.  Everyone agrees that this helps a lot. It is easier for teachers if the student can keep up with the study material and it is a lot easier to come back after week or two away.

Some schools have had to close for few days if to many students and teachers are in isolation/quarantine, but we hope that we will not have to.
