Schools in Colombo city limits closed for a week

Date:

It has been decided to close all government and government approved private schools within the Colombo city limits for one week. The decision was taken at a discussion chaired by the Minister of Education today.

Education officials say the move is a temporary solution to the fuel crisis facing the people.

The authorities also state that there is an opportunity to conduct educational activities under the online system even though schools are given leave.

The next week’s education will be decided after a review at a discussion next Saturday (25).

At present, two weeks leave has been announced for government agencies and the method of working from home is to be followed. Meanwhile, the Peradeniya University was also closed today.
