Almost a dozen public schools have returned to remote learning this week amid COVID-19 outbreaks that have also prompted one Sydney campus to reinstate a temporary mask mandate.

Hundreds of students in years 9, 10 and 11 at Liverpool Girls High School have been told to learn from home, while the school announced masks would be compulsory for pupils and teachers on school grounds for several days.

About 20 per cent of the high school’s teaching staff have either contracted COVID or are off work with symptoms, forcing the secondary students to revert to online learning for three days.
