He disclosed that the Ministry of Education has said they will do some community learning centers for the children.
He further advised the teachers to admit the fact that at the end of the day, they will still return back to the school and meet problems, and challenges so they have to made up their mind that they won’t go back to their affected schools and meet their previous classrooms that they knew, because things will change, and they also have to develop some attitude to meet the changing times.
The children also have stayed in the house for long, especially the basic level, so the way they teach the children will be totally different from the previous days, he added.
