Consent of parents not mandatory for class 10 & 12 students to attend school in Delhi, says DoE- Education News

Students of classes 10 and 12 will no longer be required to bring consent letters signed by their parents to attend offline classes in schools of Delhi, as per the Directorate of Education (DoE).

For the first time in two years, schools in Delhi will open completely in offline mode for all classes from April 1, with the city’s disaster management authority last week agreeing to end the hybrid mode of operation.

The DoE in its letter to schools said “All schools may conduct offline classes for students of grade 10 and 12. Consent of parents for attending offline classes is not mandatory. Schools may also deploy transportation facilities for the convenience of students and parents with COVID-appropriate behaviour being followed.” Schools in the national capital were shut in March 2020 to contain the spread of the coronavirus. While schools reopened in phases whenever the COVID-19 situation permitted, they have been operating in hybrid mode and students were allowed to attend offline classes only with their parents’ consent.
