Schools reopening: Parents share mixed reactions in Punjab

Ahead of the Covid-19 third waves, parents are apprehensive as well as confident about school reopening in Punjab.

Punjab Government on Saturday announced the opening of elementary schools from August 2, 2021, onwards. The parents have been asked to give their consent for sending their children to school. The school administration will also be required to follow a strict Covid-19 appropriate behaviour and will only allow fully inoculated teachers and other staff to enter the schools. The school administration has been asked to inform the Deputy Commissioner concerned about the vaccination of the teachers and other staff.
