The Instituto de Idiomas Ibiza commits to students safety and his/her learning objectives. Our top priority during the current pandemic is to create a safe environment which will allow everybody to continue his/her language studies all year round. For all students who are in the school, we will follow these steps:

COVID-19 SAFETY MEASURES:

• Controls before entering the school, including temperature control and the use of hydroalcoholic disinfectant
• Security screens to separate reception staff from the students
• Maintain a distance of 1.5 meters between students and staff including the separation of tables in classrooms and workspace, tape marking on the floor in communal areas
• Mandatory use of facemasks at all times from 6 years onwards
• Visual reminders of safety guidelines and requirements, placed on the walls in all classrooms and communal areas
• Hydro alcoholic disinfectant freely available in all classrooms, reception and communal areas
• Disinfection of classrooms at the beginning of each class
• Reduced school capacity
• Staggered class start times and breaks to minimise volume and flow of people in the school
• Limited access to communal areas. Library service and access to computers by students are temporarily unavailable
• No photocopied handouts in class
• Essential administrative paperwork handled with the use of sanitary gloves
• Suspension of non-essential staff meetings
• Teleworking applied by staff whenever possible
