In statements to Ecuador TV channel, the minister revealed they will be analyzing the return to on-site classes in educational facilities close to prisons. According to Calderon, there are 1,600 schools up to two kilometers away from jails.
Other measures being studied for the return to classrooms have to do with both the opening of peace corridors and direct surveillance in certain educational units, the minister said.
In this regard, Calderon cleared up that this weekend the Ministry will decide whether all students return to classes or only those who belong to schools and colleges that are far from prisons.
