Hope schools r not reqd to shut each time someone in the community tests positive. Patient & primary contacts should move online, otherwise kids will have 1 more year of #onlinelearning or worse no school. We need to help more schools open @BBMPCOMM @JManjunathIAS @BCNagesh_bjp

When Kabir (10 years) from an Andheri school was in Grade 2, he had written to the Hon. Prime Minister to save the environment. This time when he is in Grade 5 he has written to the Chief Justice of India to reopen schools, which is now a PIL in Hon. Supreme Court🤞 @mid_day👍

How can PVT schools sustain annual fees as low as Rs.10,000; while the Govts themselves incur more funds to run their own public schools. India has lots to learn from @KHDA when it comes to deciding school fees & new school permissions. It has to be fair for all & biased for none

In the future, our children will evaluate the decisions we took & how we handled their learning losses due to Pandemic. #SchoolReopening can begin in cities with basics such as Lab practicals for board students, access to library, sports activities, counselling #BacktoSchool2021

When will #Mumbai or #Pune turn to ZERO cases as @mybmc @PMCPune is not hiding true data. The Pandemic has swallowed almost 2 academic years resulting in huge learning losses. Open schools on hybrid model or at least for Board students (Gr. 10/12) to begin with, vaccinated staff.

We need all unaided & Govt schools to seamlessly move between 3 scenarios- online, hybrid, on campus learning. Govt has to enable this & not keep operating on the assumption that corona will magically disappear. Pls invest in IT, training, connectivity & sharing best practices

With the vaccination open to all above 45 years from 1st April 2021, it's important that teachers in that age group quickly vaccinate themselves to sustain teaching-learning in schools. #vaccinated #vaccine #vaccination #COVIDー19 #teachers #school #education

@nimmasuresh this is @InventureK12 21-22 budget 2improve learning at #RGHalli govt school. This yr we invested in salaries of 10 teachers who teach at the Govt school. They r teaching 100p online. Can govt of #Karnataka say the same 4 all govt schools & students? @TVMohandasPai
We expect politicians to take the right decisions. But then we have seemingly populist decisions like the one by @imBhupendrasinh which will ruin education altogether. “Digital India - Power to Empower” - Why the ban on schooling then ? #SaveOurSchools @CMOGuj @vijayrupanibjp
Extending our support to #SaveOurSchools Campaign for protecting rights and interests of schools and teachers. @act_cmt stands strong with Pvt School Fraternity.
Instead of cutting down fees for Online Education, government should focus on providing subsidy for fees. #SaveOurSchools #justicetoteachers @imBhupendrasinh @CMOGuj @HRDMinistry @Tges_Office
We just helped them grow to be good teachers and now they might leave the teaching profession because schools can't pay them salaries #SaveOurSchools #SaveTeachers

The order violates the schools right to trade & thus continue as going concern. With classes banned with parents refusing to pay fees, schools will be forced to retrench staff and even shut down #RightToLearn #SaveOurSchools @imBhupendrasinh @CMOGuj @Tges_Official
The order by the Gujarat Government, is in effect shutting down education altogether. It will render teachers jobless and kids without the option to learn. Article 21 promises right to education for all. The government decision is instead denying it for all. #SaveOurSchools
