Most private schools in Ludhiana reopen with 30% attendance
Most of the private schools in Ludhiana reopened on Monday with written consent from parents. According to private school authorities, over 30% attendance was witnessed in the schools for classes V to VIII.
Many parents are still hesitant to send their wards, fearing they may contract the infection, said the authorities. Parents claimed that weather too is not suitable for students to go to school.
Mona Singh, principal of Guru Nanak Public School, Model Town, said, “We have started the school and of 650 students, 125 came to attend the school. For students who will still not attend classes physically, we will be providing online study material via WhatsApp, Google drive, audio messages as usual – mostly it is content sharing via WhatsApp groups. The strength is expected to increase tomorrow.”
Swaroop Singh from Parents Associations said, “We are fed up with children being at home for nine months. They do not study with the same enthusiasm. Even children themselves are now fed up with staying at home and wanted schools to reopen at the earliest.”
