Ontario colleges and universities should prepare for all in-person classes and activities to resume this fall without capacity limits or physical distancing requirements, the government says. However, the Ministry of Colleges and Universities has told the institutions to have plans for how learning will continue in the event of COVID-19 outbreaks. Universities and colleges will still have to follow all public health and workplace safety rules, including requiring masks indoors, Tapp said. The schools will still have flexibility to offer teaching in a variety of ways that best suit their needs, Tapp wrote, including virtual and hybrid models. Specific guidance from the ministry on measures such as masks, screening and cleaning is set to be issued in early August.
