Public schools have been told to run a new Grade 1 induction from day one of the 2025–26 year, with separate toilets and safe-dismissal drills set out in a ministry guide.
The Ministry of Education has circulated the guidance to all public schools.
It sets out daily activities to introduce students to their classrooms and the wider school, help them make friends and settle into a steady routine.

Sessions are to be split before and after the first break, with practice runs for end-of-day handover.
The programme is designed to ease the move into basic education through practical tasks that lower anxiety, provide psychological and social support, build confidence and discipline and establish healthy and sporting habits from the outset.
It also aims to strengthen contact between home and school so parents can back their children in the first weeks, while instilling national values.
