Jaipur: Schools throughout Rajasthan are ready to be reopened from Wednesday.
Clasrooms have been disanitized, bottles of sanitaryers have been placed in various places and students and teachers must pass the thermometer check before the physical class begins.
Authorities say online class will continue but physical classes, especially for science subjects, are needed.
Edward Olivera, member of St Anselmon School, Mansarover, said they were fully directed at the opening with all precautions in accordance with government guidelines.
“We are ready for tomorrow and hope students to appear.
About 30% of parents have given approval but the amount may rise.” Maharaja Sawai Man Singh Vidhyalaya has made all arrangements according to the strength of the class students.
Damodar Goyal, a member of the school board, said the junior class must also be open immediately.
“We are a Happy class 9 to 12 open with a 50% presence.
Other class students must also be permitted.” Some parents do not send students because most institutes have not started transportation facilities.
Without bus services, parents must drop their children to school and therefore they prefer to provide online education instead.
Maharani Gayatri Devi’s school along with several other institutions will remain closed this week and continue the classroom from Monday.
Principal Bhartiya Vidhya Vidhyashram Pratima Sharma said parents need to realize that the schools were important not only for academic development, but for the development of their overall child.
Most parents do not want to send children to school: when schools reopen from Wednesday, the majority of parents are still worried about sending their children to school.
According to information from different schools, around 20% to 30% have provided written approval to send their environment for physical classes for grade 9 to 12.
With children not vaccinated, parents continue to be many who are worried.
Nandini Jain, the mother of a 10th grade student, said she was not ready to send her son to school, the vaccination process of students had not started.
“I agree that our children are adult, but sending them to school is not an option because the third wave might be about anytime,” Jain said.
Kishore Sharma, father of 11th grade students, said he was not ready to send his daughter to school because close contact with other students might affect his health.
Abhishek Jain Bittu, spokesman for Sayunkt Abhibhavak Sangh, said the majority of parents were not ready to send their wards to school.
He added that the government is to risk students who have not been vaccinated.
“The government risks thousands of students.
We keep a close watch and if there are private schools found violating the guidelines issued by the government regarding the reopening of the school, Fir will be submitted to them.
We are worried about the welfare of our students while the government aims to collect costs,” said Jain.
