Mrs Museveni while addressing the nation said the Ministry has come out with strategies and processes to enable continuity of learning. Some of the proficiencies to help study harmonized learning packages for use in learning while the children at home. The ministry also prepared guidelines that will be distributed to learners by their respective Local Governments through the office of Chief Administrative officer,  Resident District Commissioners, Sub county chief, parish chiefs and finally to Chairmen village councils to distribute the self-study  materials to learners. Learners in the urban setting will mostly have their material aired on TVs and radios, emails and different websites online studies. She further noted that the materials will still be relevant even after the Lockdown. At every stage of these study material proper documentation was recommended. The young children of nursery level to Primary 0ne  to three will have learning based at home through telling stories, riddles and singing listening, counting, writing speaking in their mother tongue and languages in order to help them enjoy their childhood by the parents and care givers.

Students in universities, Tertiary institutions, BTVET should engage in wide reading, should also read extensively around their courses via their semester outlines and internet-based learning as are guided by their universities and institutions and purpose to acquire desired skills, knowledge to help them when the school reopens.

The National Council for higher Education will follow up to ensure that their enlisted members respond to the needs of the students learning. Now therefor all you teachers, lecturers, instructors of different schools supported by school heads and directors prepare to be able to start immediately when the schools open so that you will not waste any time.

My ministry will continue to monitor Covid situation in the Country and as will be guided by His Excellency the president and will make further recommendation on the future opening of the schools for now we are in a lockdown until 4th May 2020, when the President will address the nation on the way forward.
