Educational Institutes Finally to Reopen in Country

After a one-and-a-half-year closure due to the Covid-19 outbreak in the country, all schools and colleges will reopen on Sunday.

In the midst of the pandemic, educational institutions' authorities have already made all necessary preparations for reopening schools and colleges in accordance with health rules.

Hundreds of schools and colleges have been inundated in various sections of the country, and educational institutions are reopening.

Furthermore, many schools and colleges' furniture has been damaged as a result of the protracted shutdown, but educational institutions are returning without replacing the equipment.

Meanwhile, experts have expressed their concerns over maintaining health guidelines at the schools and colleges, saying that there is no specific monitoring system to ensure the safety of students.

On the first day of reopening, Education Minister Dr Dipu Moni on Sunday will visit Azimpur Govt. Girls School and College in Dhaka at 10:00am to see the overall activities. Later, she will also visit ‘Lake Circus Girls High School’ in Kalabagan.

Following a significant fall in the Covid-19 daily positivity rate, the government took the decision at an inter-ministerial meeting on September 5 to reopen the schools and colleges from today, allowing students to attend in-person classes.
