September 13, 2021
Following the advisory of the BC Centre for Disease Control, at this time, only students participating in group activities at VAM comprising 50 and above participants will be required to show proof of vaccination.
VAM’s mask policy remains in effect.
___________________________
September 2, 2021
The Vancouver Academy of Music is closely monitoring the advisory of the Public Health Officer and will continue to apply an abundance of caution in prioritizing the health and safety of our students, faculty, staff, and community.
As British Columbia’s requirement of proof of vaccination does not come into effect until September 13, 2021, at this time, VAM will not be requiring individuals to show proof of vaccination to enter the facility.
Faculty members will have the liberty to choose whether or not they will teach in-person based on their students’ vaccine status.
Masks are mandatory in VAM facilities and are required to be worn at all times, except when the individual is engaging in an activity that is not possible when the face is covered. The following are exempt from this mask requirement:
– Children under the age of 5
– Anyone with an underlying medical condition which inhibits the use of a face mask, or unable to apply/remove a mask without assistance.
Sincerely,
VAM Administration
