This decision follows a nationwide readiness review confirming that schools have completed essential preparations, including facility readiness and staff training. The Ministry emphasizes the importance of a safe learning environment for students and staff. While schools will primarily operate in-person, private institutions retain the option to implement hybrid learning models based on their readiness and local guidelines.
