TES Academic Calendar is in Normal Session
Since the initial outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, Taiwan has been one of the leading countries in its management of the situation. Consequently, the number of cases has been very low so far. In order to maintain this Taiwan has maintained its high level of COVID-19 protocols to ensure that this remains the situation. We at TES are happy to play our part to ensure that our community is safe.
In early 2019 TES did close the school for a total of 20 days and practised remote learning, we were happy to receive accolades for our work from the local press and global International school community.
Basic Campus Access Protocols
Currently, daily campus access is restricted to students and staff; visitors (including parents) are only on site by invitation and are required to complete the Self-Health Declaration form.
It is necessary to provide a negative RT-PCR report following the period of Self-health management (21 days).
To simplify things for families, there will be 2 categories in use for access to the campus as regards students / staff / visitors (essential entry only).
1. ‘Recent traveller status’ - the completion of mandatory 14 days quarantine is followed by 7 days Self-health management and then a negative RT-PCR report required.
2. ‘Non-recent traveller status’ - been on island for 28 days or longer. No requirement for report. In such a case as a ‘Recent traveller status person’ delays entry till 28 days are completed they would join ‘Non-recent traveller’ status and the report would not be required.
All these protocols are applicable to campus access from January 28th 2021 moving forward until it is seen to be safe.
All persons on the campus must wear a mask at all times apart from outdoor PE lessons.
Hand washing is essential and we have cleansing sprays and gels located around the school. Temperature checks are carried out on every person entering the campus.
The school does not permit gatherings of visitors above 50 persons (not including students and staff) in any internal area of campus. External events can exceed 50 but masks must be worn at all times.
Cafeteria areas have been set up with Perspex dividers to ensure safe eating spaces.
