And while new learning strategies are to be implemented in September - there are also more basic health considerations as schools re-open - mainly the COVID virus that's been going around this summer.
In a recent interview, Director of Health Services, Doctor Melissa Diaz-Musa, said that while Covid has been declared endemic, the Omicron variant remains prevalent and still continues to spread.
She says that they have recorded a number of cases in the Belize and Cayo districts with a higher positivity rate than the other districts.
Despite this, the numbers still do not pose a concern to the ministry. And with the opening of schools forthcoming we asked the Minister of Education today whether he is concerned about the numbers. He says that they aren't worried either.
The Ministry of Health and Wellness also notes that they have not seen an increase in hospitalizations relating to covid at this time.
