The Andalusian government announced that it will recruit an additional 6,300 teachers for the next school year and will also hire 1,600 cleaners to take charge of the school's disinfection, with the aim of dividing the classrooms where there are more than 20 students. 
 
Injecting additional staff into schools is just one of the measures implemented by the government to try to solve the COVID-19 pandemic. A measure announced by the Regional Education and Sports Minister Javier Inbroda on Tuesday. This appropriation, together with other improvements, represents a total investment of more than 600 million euros.

In addition, 1,600 cleaners will be hired to take charge of the school's disinfection work, with the aim of starting a comprehensive "safe" on-site education model from September.
 
Both public and subsidized education will benefit from these measures. The management department of each educational institution will be responsible for the allocation and recruitment of auxiliary personnel, as well as finding additional classroom space if necessary. If necessary, external municipal facilities will be provided, which will require the municipal council to cooperate in the management of access to the school; if necessary, external municipal facilities will be provided, which will require the various town councils to cooperate in regulating access to the campus.
 
In addition, a COVID coordinator will be appointed among the teaching staff to be responsible for the center's health monitoring and data transmission to the Ministry of Health and Family Affairs.
 
The coordinator will work with health authorities to initiate safety agreements in the event of an outbreak or infectious disease in the education center, including responding to closures and quarantining students if necessary.
 
The Education Representative said that students will be required to wear masks if they cannot maintain a distance of one and a half meters.
 
The government will allocate 25 million euros to schools to expand or renovate their facilities and prepare them for emergency response.
