 Private schools adamant to rule out govt warning, reopen schools on Aug 15

KARACHI: President All Pakistan Private Schools Association Kashif Mirza is adamant that schools will reopen on Aug 15, despite warning from the government that strict action would be taken against those opening schools before Sept 15.

The interprovincial meeting of education ministers headed by Federal Education Minister Shafqat Mahmood has said that they would further review the coronavirus pandemic situation on Sept 7 prior to opening schools.

On the other hand, the APPSA president believes that the government would not open schools on Sept 15 as well. He said the date given by the government was conditional.
