Schools will reopen as scheduled on May 17 for on-site teaching despite concerns about the rate of Covid-19 infections, according to the Office of the Basic Education Commission (Obec).
Obec is determined to push ahead with the opening of the new term after meeting school district directors and headmasters from across the country.
Yesterday Obec's secretary-general, Amporn Pinasa, said the meeting discussed and assessed the readiness of schools to reopen.
