Nagaland’s Governor RN Ravi today said that the decision on resuming classes for lower levels will be taken “in due course of time.”
In his address to 7th session of 13th Nagaland Legislative Assembly (NLA) on February 12, Ravi said that the onset of COVID-19 pandemic and the imposition of lockdown led to closure of all the schools in the state. The Department of School Education came up with online digital education in the State from the month of May 2020 for teaching.
The Department also developed online student’s evaluation portal, online school monitoring system, teacher’s app and teachers’ online transfer portal and ensured that the teaching-learning activities are effectively carried out throughout the State. The Department in association with ‘Pratham Education Foundation’ is implementing the Online Teacher Training and Professional Development initiative ‘Gurushala’ since December 2020 for all the Government School teachers throughout the State.
“The Department is in the process of training mathematics teachers in usage of teaching tools like graphical calculators and its emulators in collaboration with M/s Casio India. The Department after fully evaluating the COVID situation has decided to resume regular classes for students of classes 6 and above from February 8 in all the Schools in the State with proper SOPs in place for preventing the spread of COVID-19,” Ravi said.
The Class XI Promotion Exam is scheduled to commence from March 11 and the HSSLC/HSLC board exams are scheduled to commence from April 6.
