The AAP government has decided to reopen schools in a phased manner starting from September 1. Physical classes for students of class 6 to class 8 will begin from September 8, news agency ANI reported.
The decision was taken at the meeting of the Delhi Disaster Management Authority. Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal earlier told that the government was considering reopening schools as early as possible but the final decision would be taken only after consulting all the stakeholders. “There has been a mixed experience of states which have reopened schools. We have been monitoring the situation,” the Delhi CM had said.
On August 6, Lieutenant Governor Anil Baijal had asked officials to set up an expert panel to deliberate the reopening of schools in the national Capital.
