However, the two-shift schools and colleges will have to conduct their morning shift between 8:00am and 11:10am while the day shift will be held from 11:00am to 2:10pm.

There will be five classes in one-shift institutions while the four classes for double-shift schools and colleges. The respective educational institutions will fix the length of the class.

Earlier, the education ministry issued an order to continue the classes in schools and colleges until 26 April to make up the losses induced by the coronavirus pandemic.
