Statement of Education Minister Bhupendrasinh: Schools and colleges can be opened in Gujarat in phases, decision will be taken after the meeting of High Power Committee chaired by the Chief Minister.

The decision to start school-colleges on November 23 was postponed after Koro became uncontrollable after the Diwali festivities in the state. However, now that the daily corona cases in the state are coming down to around 1000 instead of 1500, school-colleges are likely to start in January. All schools and colleges are getting indications that they will start from January 15. In this regard, Education Minister Bhupendrasinh Chudasama said that schools and colleges can be opened in Gujarat in phases. A meeting of the High Power Committee will be held under the chairmanship of the Chief Minister. After this meeting a decision will be taken to start a school-college.

Earlier, it was announced that classes 9 to 12 in the state would start from November 23 before the government-administrators shirked their responsibilities. In this regard, an important decision was taken in the state cabinet meeting chaired by Chief Minister Vijay Rupani to resume education in the state after Diwali in secondary, higher secondary schools and colleges on an odd-even basis. Announcing the decision taken at the cabinet meeting to start school-colleges, Education Minister Bhupendrasinh Chudasama said, "Every parent has to give a letter of consent to the school that it is my responsibility to send my child to school." Due to this statement of the Education Minister, it is clear that in view of this policy of the state government, the government or the school administrators have shifted the responsibility from the responsibility to the parents.

Schools and parents have to take care of these things
Sanitation facility has to be provided in every campus before starting school-colleges.

Students should be provided with thermal gun checking, sanitizer and soap arrangements for hand washing.


Social distance should be maintained in the classrooms and in the school-college complex. Not only that, the mask should be used compulsorily.

It is also important to ensure that medical services are available within close proximity to the school-college.

Following the SOP of the Government of India, the online education system provided by the schools and colleges in the state will remain the same.

The SOP will be applicable to all government, grant-in-aid and self-finance schools, Kasturba Gandhi Balika Vidyalaya, Social Justice and Empowerment Department as well as Adi Jati Vikas Department schools of all the boards in the state.

From November 23, Std-9 to 12 schools as well as PG, Medical-Paramedical and undergraduate final year classes will start in the state.

The government will announce later to take appropriate decision in time to start the academic work of the remaining classes-standards.

Student attendance at school is not mandatory.
Institutions must also obtain the written consent of the student's parents or guardians to attend school.

Students will also be asked to bring their masks, water bottles, books, snacks, etc. from home and not to interact with other students.

According to the revised seating arrangement in the classroom, there should be a distance of at least 6 feet between the two students.

The principal-principal will have to arrange for the students to come in phases so that there is no overcrowding in the school-college campus.

For this purpose, the state government has asked to make arrangements for Odd-Even i.e. three days in a week for Std. 9th and 11th and three days for 10 and 12 in the school as per requirement.

It is also suggested that students come to school on the scheduled days of the week and do homework assignments on the remaining days.

It is also advised not to play sports or any other group activity on the field of mass prayer.

Parents will be encouraged to use their personal transportation to get the child to and from school.
