The Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports has issued a notification to temporarily suspend the operation of private educational institutions in the country for two weeks.
The two-week suspension of private schools is to prevent any spread of COVID-19 in schools and outbreaks in the community.
The Ministry said that private schools can continue to study electronically, except for the 12th grade, which must continue to study to prepare for the high school diploma exam taking place on December 21, 2020.
