Agartala: In light of the sweltering heatwave in the state, the educational board in Tripura has prioritized student health, announcing a brief shutdown of schools from April 29th to May 1st. The decision stems from guidance provided by the Directorate of School Education Department in Tripura regarding the scorching heatwave conditions prevailing in the state.
In continuation of the earlier memo of even number dated April 23, due to the perpetuation of the scorching heat wave throughout the state, it has been decided that all the government and government-aided schools under the Education (School) Department, Govt. of Tripura, schools under TTAADC and privately managed schools will remain closed for more than three days from April 29 to May 5,” the Education (School) Department, Government of Tripura, said.
Following a prior memorandum issued on April 23, 2024, it has been officially declared that all Government, Government Aided, and Privately Managed Schools under the purview of the Education (School) Department, Government of Tripura, along with schools under the Tripura Tribal Areas Autonomous District Council (TTAADC), will remain closed for an additional three days.
The closure, effective from April 29th to May 1st, 2024, aims to safeguard students and staff from the adverse effects of the intense heatwave. This decision comes as temperatures continue to soar, posing health risks and discomfort for students attending classes.
District Education Officers have been promptly tasked with disseminating this directive to all schools within their respective jurisdictions. The proactive measure underscores the government’s commitment to prioritizing the safety and well-being of its students, particularly during challenging weather conditions.
While the closure may disrupt the regular academic calendar, authorities emphasize that the health and safety of students remain paramount. Parents and guardians are urged to ensure that children stay hydrated, seek shelter from the sun, and take necessary precautions to mitigate the effects of the heatwave.
