Students, class is not cancelled. You’ll still have to learn from home on these days: COVID19
“When this requires use of digital devices, schools will assist students who do not have access,” said MOE, adding that the ministry’s headquarters will provide schools with sufficient resources.
"The virus situation is changing all the time. I wish we can avoid that because the disruption to lives is tremendous," he said. While the ministry will try its best to continue with major examinations such as the Primary School Leaving Examination, and GSCE O-Level, N-Levels and A-Level, there is scope for some adjustment.
However, schools will be selective with those they allow to come to school and school-based student care centres. “We are also conscious that moving to home-based learning will have impact on many parents and families, especially those without good home support. Hence, we want to progressively introduce home-based learning, so as to allow both our students and parents to be better prepared should the situation call for more days of home-based learning,” said the ministry.
