IPOH – The Perak Islamic Religious Department (JAIPk) today issued a notification on the operation of educational institutions registered with it in accordance with standard operating procedures (SOPs) of the conditional movement control order (CMCO) enforcement in the state.
JAIPk director Datuk Mohd Yusop Husin said students of Forms One, Four, Five and Six of Sekolah Menengah Agama Negeri and Sekolah Menengah Agama Rakyat, private tahfiz schools, and ‘pondok’ schools, as well as those sitting for the Sijil Tinggi Agama Malaysia, are to report to their respective hostels on Tuesday.
Face-to-face learning sessions will begin the next day.
For students of Forms Two and Three of Sekolah Menengah Agama Negeri and Sekolah Menengah Agama Rakyat, private tahfiz schools, and pondok schools, he said, virtual learning will take place until March 6.
“So far, (those involved in virtual learning) are to report to their schools on March 7 before face-to-face learning begins on March 8, but these decisions depend on upcoming developments and directions from the National Security Council,” he said when contacted by Bernama here today.
He said al-Quran and fardu Ain classes as well as Islamic kindergartens are allowed to start face-to-face learning sessions on Wednesday.
According to Yusop, students from areas under the movement control order will be quarantined at their respective schools until January 24.
Parents and guardians will not be allowed to visit their children in school dormitories and no activities outside the school grounds will be allowed during the CMCO period, he said.
He added that teachers are required to be in school as usual, while parents are given the freedom to decide whether or not to send their children to school based on their health conditions. – Bernama, January 16, 2021
