The head of the Ministry of Public Education, Delfina Gómez Álvarez commented that the return to classes must be in person, cautious, orderly and asks parents to have confidence
Despite the fact that many parents, teachers and even health personnel oppose the return to face- to- face classes, the Secretary of Public Education has spoken out in this regard and emphatically mentioned that all students will return to classrooms. "We are ready".
The head of the SEP, Delfina Gómez Álvarez reported that they are ready to return to face-to-face classes on August 30, which must be done in an orderly and cautious manner so that schools are a safe place for children. SEP: The return to classes 2021-22 will be face-to-face, we are ready.
It was at the morning press conference on Thursday, August 12, where Delfina Gómez recalled that during confinement due to the Covid-19 pandemic, classes did not stop, "they were never interrupted" thanks to different programs such as the Learn at Home and Youth at Home, which was thanks to the teachers who implemented different tools.
The return to classes is imminent, it must be orderly and cautious because they are more than a training space, because they involve factors that help the development of children and young people. It is a second home, because emotions, dreams are heard
From the National Palace, the teacher added that because the students "need to minimize the stress and possible violence that they experienced due to the confinement of the pandemic; they have to be treated in psychosocial factor … for the good of the students, this August 30 we return to the schools "he commented.
On the other hand, Gómez Álvarez said that all the staff of the Ministry of Public Education is ready to return to schools, since actions will be implemented to guarantee the safety of all students, as well as the educational community. That is why activities such as ceremonies or meetings are not going to take place.
If there is good discipline, a good teamwork, school can be the safest place for our children … We are prepared, the teachers will show dedication and vocation
Everything seems to indicate that the "rain, thunder or lightning" that President Andrés Manuel López Obrador had mentioned a few weeks ago and that he had raised controversy was fulfilled because many were opposed to the little ones returning to the classrooms. And although at first it was said that returning or not to the institutions was optional, things have already changed and it will be mandatory.
We are ready Mr. President; parents: let us have that confidence, we have demonstrated the teaching that we carry forward; little ones: we are waiting for you, young people: we are here to serve you. Mexico is standing and has to continue
