Nagpur: Sources in the education department have confirmed to TOI that schools outside Nagpur city limits will reopen from Monday, but with certain riders. On Monday and Tuesday, only teachers will be allowed in school. After reviewing the situation and rechecking the response from parents, permission may be given to allow students into classrooms from November 25 (Wednesday).
Many big brand schools, including those from CBSE board, are located just outside city limits. This order is applicable to them. The education department has clarified that it is not mandatory to reopen schools either for teachers or students.
A highly placed source said that the official order is expected by evening from the district collector’s office.
Nagpur city schools will, however, remain closed till December 13 as per the decision taken by the Nagpur Municipal Corporation.
