stament Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 Seems that schools are taking the sensible decision to close to prevent an outbreak. They know that whilst the majority of people report where they have been to, not everyone complies and hence it seems they have taken precautionary measures (since we know a lot of people travelled during the holiday season). I've heard some schools are closed until 18th whilst others are 11th. Has there been any official ruling from Chiang Mai government officials yet? Perhaps we could list the schools here that we know of that have closed and for how long as a reference for people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenside Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 Varee School (Prathom Thai & English Programmes): Start of term postponed to 15th January with online lessons from tomorrow (5th). Have requested parents to keep children at home during this period. By the look of it all other parts of the school are similar to Prathom. The International Programme was due to return next week and has also been postponed. I doubt that anyone can predict the reliability of the return date so it's just playing it by ear until further notice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stament Posted January 4, 2021 Author Share Posted January 4, 2021 ABS & Unity are teaching online this week starting tomorrow and will review at the end of the week. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 Chiang Mai University is online teaching or work at home until the 24th. Noticed mask wearing is at nearly 100% now at the university so either mandatory or highly recommended by the university. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tfc Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Quote Many schools including Prince Royal College, Dara College, Montfort College and Sacred Heart College have announced that they will be closed longer than the initially stated 18th January due to fear of the recent Covid-19 surge. Schools now say that they aim to reopen on the 1st February. A total of 72 schools out of the 83 primary schools in Chiang Mai’s region 1 have been closed. Most are still aiming to reopen on the 18th January, but will evaluate the situation again in the next few days. https://www.chiangmaicitylife.com/citynews/covid-19/chiang-mai-schools-extend-closure-until-end-of-month/ Would be interested to know what other schools have also extended their reopening to the 1st Feb if anyone knows.
