Panaji: As the Directorate of Education (DOE) has allowed schools to start offline classes for students from class IX to XII, most of the schools with high registration are expected to start the complete physical session only after the holidays.
Because instructions that allow offline exams for class XI and XII come first, the majority of higher secondary schools have been tested scheduled from Monday.
For class IX students and X too, the online exam is currently underway.
School management says that, besides the medium exam, DoE instruction for offline classes has come in a short time and they need time to complete the schedule for full classes.
“We held a meeting with teachers on Saturday and there discussed that we have a high registration of more than 1,000 students.
We need time to complete the pattern for offline classes.
Offline classes also may not interfere with the online session for class V to VIII.
So after We complete the appropriate schedule, full-cleded classes will be held after vacation Diwali, “said Satyesh Kakodkar, manager of the New Educational Institute, Curchorem.
He said having a class for class IX and X students in offline mode for one or two hours can also interfere with their ongoing examination, if there is a Covid-19 infection case.
