Karnataka schools open for more students, but the atmosphere is still uncertain
It has been announced that class 9 and 11 students can attend physical classes as well, from February 7 in Karnataka. However, the atmosphere in the schools is still mixed, as students and staff know that attending school is not the same as pre-pandemic times.
Teachers undergo COVID-19 tests at regular intervals, while the students’ temperatures are recorded and sanitizer dispensers stand in corners at the schools.
The principal of The Indiranagar Cambridge School, Tasneem said “Out of the 79 students studying in grade 9, when we first held a meeting regarding the re-opening of schools, 50% of the parents had agreed to send their wards. We will resume our classes for them starting on February 3, and it will be a pilot week. We are not sure how many students will turn up. The school will continue with the online classes and simultaneously conduct an offline class for students.”
