At work to decide how early Delhi schools can reopen, says Manish Sisodia

Education minister Manish Sisodia on Wednesday said the state government is at work to understand and decide how early schools in the Capital can be reopened, while announcing that an international education conference will be held in the city between January 11 and 17.

“The government is brainstorming to decide on how early schools can be reopened in Delhi, especially for board classes, as the dates for exams have already been announced,” he said.

Union education minister Dr Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank had earlier this month announced that CBSE class 10 and 12 board exams will be held from May 4 to June 10 this year, with results to be declared by July 15.

Sisodia also said the international conference would discuss school education in the post-Covid era. “We need to plan our schools in the post-Covid era, just as we are planning Covid-19 vaccination. For this, the Delhi government is organising an international conference where 22 education experts from India, Finland, England, Germany, Singapore, Canada, and Singapore will join panel discussions on themes of school education. Covid-19 has created an unprecedented situation for children. So, schooling and learning in the post-Covid era cannot be business as usual,” he said.
