The guidelines will be decided after a meeting of the health and education department: Chudasama
The state's primary and secondary schools have been closed since March 2020 due to Kovid-19. The decision to reopen schools closed for the last seven months was taken at a cabinet meeting on Wednesday.
Education Minister Bhupendrasinh Chudasama said a meeting chaired by Chief Minister Vijay Rupani had decided to start educational work in schools after Diwali. He said the first secondary-higher secondary schools are being considered for operation, though a final decision would be taken after consultation with the health department.
Action plan to be prepared In
a meeting of the state cabinet held at Gandhinagar, Education Minister Bhupendrasinh Chudasama had presented a proposal to start schools.
The cabinet finally approved the reopening of schools that had been closed since March 2020. However, as Kovid-19 has not yet been fully exempted, it was decided to plan ahead to prepare the rules for running schools.
Accordingly, a meeting will be held with top officials including Deputy Chief Minister and Health Minister Nitin Patel and Education Minister. The meeting will prepare an action plan on what kind of rules should be followed for running schools. The schools will be reopened in compliance with the action plan, Minister Chudasama said.
Rules will be made about things
like masks, social distance, sanitation etc. will be mandatory before schools start. In addition, students will be considered for water and snacks, seating arrangements, how many students to include in a room, how to arrange the rest of the students,
setting up an odd-even system, or calling students in the same way in the morning and afternoon. Guidelines on how to comply with many such matters will be prepared after consultation with the health department.
