Teachers will be allowed at 50% capacity
Teachers and other administrative staff should only attend the schools at 50% capacity. So, the other half can work from home. It was also announced that the online learning hours will be set up according to the school schedules.
Private schools return as per usual
These rules were rolled out only for public school students. Students of private schools will return to face-to-face classes next week.
A lot of these students will be back to face-to-face classes after a gap of nearly 10 months!
