Attendance in UP classes 9 to 12 rises as normal schedule resumes amid COVID-19. Read to know more.
The UP government has removed all the time restrictions for classes 9 to 12 in government and private schools from Tuesday. Now, classes will be held as per the schedule of the pre-covid period.
According to the officials, attendance of the students in the schools has increased by a significant margin on Tuesday. President of unaided private schools’ association, Uttar Pradesh, Anil Agarwal said, “From January, we were allowed five-hour sessions from classes 9 to 12. Earlier, over 605 students were already coming.” He also said that from Tuesday students’ strength for class 10 and 12 has gone up from 60-70% to around 80-90%. For class 9 and 11, earlier it was around 50%, which has now gone up to 65-70%. He further said that it might increase in the coming days.
Now, the government has given us permission to run schools in a regular way like it was before COVID-1 outbreak. From Wednesday, the students from classes 6 to 8 will also come to school for three hours. While for government schools there are different day slots allowed, for us there is no such options if schools have sufficient infrastructure,” Agarwal added.
From February 10, regular schools for classes 6 to 8 will start, with parents submitting written consent. Classes 1 to 5 will start from March 1, 2021.
Meanwhile, the state board is expected to release the UP Board 10th Time Table 2021 as well as UP Board 12th Time Table 2021 soon on its official website.
