As soon as the corona decreases in the state, now preparations are on to unlock the schools for the children. The Education Department has prepared a plan to start offline studies in major classes from July 15. In the first phase, children from class 9th to 12th can be called to school. A proposal to open the school will be proposed in the cabinet meeting to be held today evening.
If the cabinet approves, then from July 15, education in schools from 9 to 12 will start. For this, the condition of following social distancing and covid protocol will be kept. In the first phase, half the children can be called to school, the idea is to start classes on the model of calling school after one day. After the approval of the cabinet, the Home Department will give relaxation in the guidelines, only then the way for the school will be cleared. Education Minister Govind Singh Dotasara has said in the matter of opening the school that the decision will be taken at the cabinet and chief minister level only.
Schools were closed since March as soon as the second wave of Corona arrived. After that even examinations could not be held and children were promoted without examination. Right now teachers and other staff are coming regularly to the schools, but the classes of the children are closed. The new session has started from July. With the reduction of Corona, the Education Department has decided to start studies in schools.
Due to the closure of schools in the first and second wave of Corona, the children have suffered a great loss of education. Experts believe that during the Corona period, schools continued the education of children through online classes, but children are facing problems in many subjects. There is a network problem in remote villages, children from poor families with no laptop or smart phone, due to which they are deprived of education. Offline classes are the only support for such children.
