MUMBAI: After consulting the state public health department, the education department decided to resume offline school sessions for classes V to VIII across the state from January 27. However, BMC has decided to keep schools shut until further notice.
The state school education department issued a government resolution on reopening of schools on Monday stating the health department has agreed to reopen schools, but the zilla parishads and municipal corporations concerned should ensure safety measures. School education minister Varsha Gaikwad had last week said the state will issue a separate standard operating procedure (SOP) on how to go ahead with the reopening of schools in the backdrop of the Covid-19 pandemic.
