The government has said that the local level can decide on the operation of the school depending on the status of the coronavirus infection.
The spokesperson at the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology, Deepak Sharma, said that the final decision on whether to operate the school physically or close it, for the time being, would be taken at the local level based on the concept of smart lockdown.
The district's Covid Crisis Management Committee has already given this right to the local level. In this case, depending on the condition of the covid, the school can be run in full physical presence.
It is said to be partially or completely shut down while Corona remains in effect. He said that there would be no uniformity as the local level would decide the operation of the school according to its own circumstances.
Based on Corona's local influence, the local level has made various decisions about running the school. According to Moti Prasad Bhattarai, Education Officer of Kathmandu Metropolitan City, Kathmandu Metropolitan City is preparing to conduct only classes eight to 12 before Dashain. Lalitpur Metropolitan City has decided to open a school.
