The government on Tuesday (today) will decide about the reopening of primary schools following Coronavirus pandemic precautionary measures.

Earlier on September 15, universities and colleges and 9th and 10th-grade students had resumed on-campus learning, however, students of classes 6th, 7th and 8th returned to schools on September 22 after the six-month break.

Sindh had delayed the recommencement of middle classes by a week but allowed the schools to reopen after reviewing the pandemic situation. The students of primary and pre-primary classes are scheduled to return to schools from September 30.

Federal Minister for Education Shafqat Mehmood said about 1% COVID-19 rate has been witnessed in educational institutions and that was satisfactory for the government, adding that institutes were being re-opened with strict implementation of SOPs.

The minister said the government’s action against the COVID-19 outbreak was being appreciated internationally. Earlier, the government had decided to close schools, colleges, and universities in March in order to curb the spread of coronavirus.
