ISLAMABAD: Schools across the country resumed regular classes on Monday after the National Command Operation Centre (NCOC) eased the coronavirus restrictions following a reduction in the new cases across Pakistan.
The institutions were earlier operating on 50 percent capacity after they reopened following intermittent closures due to the prevalence of Covid-19. All the students were attending the school on alternate days and the school timings were also reduced.
Last week, NCOC head Asad Umar announced that all educational institutions would start normal classes from October 11 (today). The planning and development minister had also made this announcement in a post shared on his official Twitter handle.
“Based on the reduced level of Covid disease spread and the launch of the school vaccination program, it has been decided in today’s NCOC meeting to allow all educational institutions to start normal classes from 11th October,” he had said in a tweet.
