In a circular issued late Friday night, the education department declared all schools to suspend offline education for Classes 1-9 from January 8 till 31,2022. Only online teaching mode is to be followed for these classes. This applies to all government, self financed and grant-in-aid schools affiliated to all boards across the state.
However, for classes 10 and 12, the state education department decided to continue with the existing teaching pattern of both offline and online classes. “Attendance is not mandatory for these offline classes and schools have to take written consent letters from parents of students willing to attend offline classes. For students not attending offline classes, the schools have to arrange online classes’, the circular issued stated.
Meanwhile, coaching centres from class 9 to post graduate level for various entrance and competitive exams will be allowed to operate with students according to 50 per cent of the seating capacity. Meanwhile, entrance and competitive exams for high schools and colleges will be allowed as per the SOPs of Covid-19 guidelines.
The state government has allowed an assembly of maximum 400 attendees in any political, social, religious, educational and cultural event in open spaces. However in closed spaces, a maximum 400 persons with 50 per cent of the seating capacity of the venue will be allowed.
