COVID-19 Student Safety Guide

This Guide outlines the measures that Georgian@ILAC is implementing to protect the health and safety of faculty and students.

COVID-19 Safety Plan

The Ontario (ON) Provincial Health Officer has advised that it is safe for Ontario to move to Phase 3 of reopening schools. Independent schools such as International Language Academy of Canada (ILAC) are required to prepare a “return-to-school plan” for its staff, students and visitors.

The Georgian@ILAC COVID-19 Safety Plan has been developed by Management after conducting a risk assessment of the 425 Bloor Street East Dream Building Campus.

Your health and safety is important to us

With COVID-19 steadily increasing in both Toronto and Vancouver we wanted to send you some important reminders and information..

To Reduce the Spread as per Public Health:

If you are experiencing any Covid-19 like symptoms even if they are mild- Stay Home
Get fully vaccinated, plus a booster dose when eligible- this provides the best protection against Covid-19
Wear a well fitted mask based on your location and situation
Wash and sanitize your hands often

Please note- masks are mandatory on all ILAC campuses.

Do you have your COVID-19 BOOSTER yet?

“Wherever you are in Canada right now, the Public Health Agency advises to get that booster shot”.

Book a COVID-19 vaccine at a city-run or hospital immunization clinic using the Province’s registration system. Vaccines are also available at pop-up clinics, pharmacies, and some family doctors.
