> Education Minister Desmond Lee said on Friday that schools may switch younger students to home-based learning if the 24-hour PSI forecast reaches 300 or higher. MOE kindergartens and preschools will remain open to children without alternative care. O-level exams may be rescheduled; A-level exams are less likely to be affected.
