Private schools in Sharjah will provide online learning options to students who have genuine reasons and unavoidable circumstances, according to Sharjah Private Education Authority (SPEA) rules and regulations.
According to a circular sent to parents and obtained by Khaleej Times, students who opt for online learning must present a medical report, evidence of the circumstances, and other relevant documents.
Besides these reasons, the circular also stated three categories of students excluded from in-person learning. Elderly, patients with autoimmune disorders, and students who are not currently in the emirate for reasons related to travel restrictions due to Covid-19, are excused from in-person class.
According to an official at SPEA, the authority has set ten requirements for comprehensive re-opening of schools. These includes, schools must reach 50% of attendance before October 31, ensure a safe distance between students, mandate wearing a mask while on school premises.
The number of students in the class must not exceed the permissible count before the pandemic while maintaining a safe distance, and raising the percentage of students on buses to 930.
