Principal Director of School Education Department Shanavas C said, the virtual classes are conducted to compensate the loss of instructional days caused due to the ongoing Lockdown. He said, the broadcast schedule is made in such a way that only two classes will be having the lessons on a particular day so that children will not group up in large numbers in Schools or Village Council Halls where the broadcast is heard or viewed.
Meanwhile, for students, who do not have the facilities to access radio or television at home, arrangements have been made at a common place like the Village Panchayat Hall, School Auditorium and other with observation of social distancing.
