Reena’s younger son has also got admission in the school in KG class. “I am glad. He is getting to attend school in person, not online.”

“The students have suffered a lot because of lockdown and shutdown of the schools. They haven’t gained much knowledge in the past two years. Hopefully, this cycle will end now and schools are open for good,” said Ritu, another child’s mother.

Schools in the city were briefly reopened before being closed again on December 28 last year in view of the third wave of the coronavirus driven by its Omicron variant.

While the Centre has dropped the clause that mandated parental consent for students to physically attend classes from its guidelines, the Delhi government has decided to continue with the clause.

The schools are, however, free to decide on the number of students they want to accommodate based on their infrastructure, keeping in mind Covid protocols.

Poonam Yadav, a third standard class teacher, said, “All students are very excited. We are also very excited because now approximately two years have passed but the basics of children are not very clear because they were not coming to school.Several students have been attending classes from their hometown. And many of them haven’t returned. We have been contacting them”.

“Many parents have assured me that they will be returning soon. We are hoping students will return soon. It will take time to return to pre-covid normalcy. We are expecting 50 per cent attendance from today,” she said.
