Education Minister Desmond Lee announced on October 16 that schools across Singapore, including Special Education facilities, are enacting protective measures due to worsening air quality. Institutions are actively managing student exposure by limiting outdoor sessions and utilizing air purification systems. Authorities are prioritizing the health of vulnerable students, particularly those with underlying medical issues or those showing signs of illness. To ensure operational consistency, school administrators are utilizing the National Environment Agency’s 24-hour PSI projections from the previous evening to schedule daily activities. These strategic adjustments are designed to balance educational continuity with the physical well-being of the student population as the haze situation evolves.
