All schools, except in Samut Sakhon, can reopen from Feb 1

 

 

The Education Ministry announced on Wednesday that all schools, except for those in Samut Sakhon province, will be allowed to reopen from February 1.

 

However, the announcement said schools in Bangkok and its vicinity – Nonthaburi, Samut Prakan, Nakhon Pathom and Pathum Thani – can have no more than 25 students per classroom.

 

In Samut Sakhon, which has seen the highest number of infections in the new wave, schools are required to conduct online classes or at least assignments in case they don’t have facilities.

So all the kids turn-up and what to do with the usual 35+ per class.. sit in the corridors?

Schools where we leave in Pak Phanang already started back.  They must have different rules for places outside BKK. When the classes were closed at the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic, the schools re-opened and were limited by numbers of students per class, so they divided the classes in half. The kids had alternating days when they went to school, half on Monday the other half on Tue and so on. This worked with classes that are big, they can manage to still get their education, if you dare to call it that here in LOS.

Well this is cool. Education for the future of the country is so important.

Great decision even if it is limited to 25 per class. The UK is lost in Lockdown Stockholm syndrome.

Certainly good news for the kids.

Just why do students need to use those mobile cases to bring their books???
