PESHAWAR: All public and private educational institutions from primary to University levels have reopened across Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province on Thursday amid strict implementation of corona SOPs.
KP government Spokesman Kamran Bangash said that all the educational institutions have reopened in the province as decided by NCOC, adding that all heads of the institutions have been directed to hold physical classes three days a week with 50 percent attendance and ensure strict adherence of already notified SOPs for COVID.
He said the faculties of the institutions have also been directed to submit their corona vaccination certificates with the administration.
Bangash said that education institutions would remain closed in only district Bannu due to high prevalence of corona infection and as soon as the situation improves the educational activities would also resume there.
It is to mention here that the educational institutions were closed on September 3 initially for a period of nine days till September 12 but later the date was extended up to September 15 as per the advice of NCOC due to prevalence of corona cases in Peshawar, Swabi, Malakand, Swat, Haripur, Abbottabad, Mansehra, Mardan and DI Khan.
