Hello
The trial telecast of classes from 1 to 10 will be held from June 2. The classes will be held on a trial basis in the first two weeks.
The online classes should be taken for five hours during time slots between 8:30am to 3:30pm.
With the second wave of COVID-19 likely the chances of reopening schools in June are remote though authorities may take a call after assessing the public health scenario.
The telecast of classes for pre-primary till class VII will continue to follow the current schedule.
The digital divide and its inherent inequalities notwithstanding, technology is the foremost thing that is helping us stay connected, informed, and productive as we continue to fight the pandemic.
The unaided schools affiliated to the CBSE and ICSE, mentioned in the petitions, should submit exact expenditure within November 17. Based on this submission, the fee that can be levied from students will be decided.
Though the project was sown a few years ago, it was, in fact, the lockdown, imposed in the aftermath of the COVID outbreak which saw schools shut for months, that accelerated its successful integration in the state in the span of a few months.
The ad revenue generated from online streaming on 'itsvicters' YouTube channel or TV broadcast in Kerala has been donated to the Kerala Chief Minister's Distress Relief Fund (CMDRF).
Keeping aside their ideological differences, leaders from both sides joined hands to donate a television set to a poor student in Malappuram district whose parents could not afford to buy the gadget.
Classes in the second phase have been arranged such that it will benefit the English-medium students also.
