Delhi School Reopening: Several schools in Delhi are set to resume physical classes from Monday after remaining closed for 19 months due to the Covid-19 pandemic. However, many have decided to reopen school after Diwali.
Last week, the Delhi Disaster Management Authority, DDMA announced that schools would reopen for all classes from November 1. Though teaching and learning may continue in blended mode.
Further, DDMA said, “Schools will have to ensure that there is not more than 50 percent attendance in a class at a time. Also, no student should be forced to attend physical classes.”
In contrast, government schools have been reporting over 80 percent attendance reopened in September for classes 9 to 12. And private schools are in the process of sending out consent forms to parents. Most of them will decide their plan of action post-festive week.
Private schools in Delhi that will reopen after Diwali are Pushpanjali Enclave, Modern Public School, DAV Public School, Indian School, and Bal Bharti School, and more.
