With no assembly, no sports activities and no hostel facility, regular classes of 10 and 12 will be reopened from Friday. A day after the state government announced regular school for classes 9 to 12, the school education department issued the standard operating procedure on Wednesday with clear instruction that schools will ensure that the students will not gather anywhere on campus.
For the re-opening of class 9 and 11, the department stated that school principals will decide as per the available space and enrolment of the students.
The department has directed the schools that the time table should be prepared in a way that the gathering of students must be avoided and SOP could be implemented properly. Students' presence will not be mandatory in the class, the department has categorically stated.
One-time permission granted by the parents to their wards to attend school will be applicable for the entire academic session.
Schools have been instructed to continue online classes. Students who do not want to attend campus academics and are willing to attend online classes should be allowed to do so by the schools. For government schools, full attendance of teaching faculty will be mandatory.
Prayer assembly, group activities, sports activities and swimming pools will not be allowed to open in the schools. Schools have been instructed that it is their duty to ensure that students will not gather.
Schools providing transport facility will have to ensure proper physical distance of the students and other staff in the vehicles. Vehicles will be sanitized periodically with 1 per cent sodium hypochlorite. Besides, other SOPs issued by the central and state government in the past will be required to be followed by the schools inside the campus. Residential schools will be opened as day schools. There will be no hostel facility.
