Delhi schools welcome CAQM’s decision to permit resumption of offline classes – Education News
Schools in Delhi welcomed the Centre-appointed air quality panel CAQM’s decision to permit resumption of physical classes for standard six and above, stating that students were deprived of interpersonal interactions for a long time.
The Directorate of Education also issued a formal order saying schools will reopen from Saturday. However, private schools are likely to resume physical classes from Monday. “Physical classes for students up to class five can begin from December 27,” the CAQM said.
The panel said it received a large number of representations, arguing the “compelling necessity” to open the schools and educational institutions. Following the directions of the Supreme Court, the CAQM examined the requests of various organisations regarding relaxations on the restrictions imposed, a statement said.
The Action Committee of Unaided Pvt Schools, an umbrella organization of around 2000 schools, said with the winter season, schools can think of adjusting their timings to welcome back the students.
“As always, the school fraternity looks forward to welcoming our kids back to school. School hours can be adjusted to make it comfortable for children to reach schools in winter. I am certain that schools will ensure the safe and smooth running of physical classes,” said Bharat Arora, the general secretary of the committee.
