Schools to reopen earlier in September to cover lost ground

The new school year (2020-2021) will start on September 7 nationwide to cover the material that was left out in the previous term after schools were closed to halt the spread of the coronavirus, the Education Ministry announced on Thursday.

Pupils are also advised to keep last year’s books as teachers have been told to cover the material that is necessary in order to proceed to the next class.
