Since the middle of the last week, schools have sprayed disinfectant and clean up classrooms to ensure safety for students. They have divided classes into smaller ones, used laboratories for classrooms and marked seats for students to make sure that the distance between two students is at least one meter according to regulations by the city Department of Education and Training.
