Uttar Pradesh opened schools in a phased manner with physical classes for Classes 1 to 5 from Monday and for those in Classes 6 to 8, schools restarted from February 10.

According to the state’s basic education department, classes will be held two days a week and only half of the total number of students will be allowed to attend to ensure social distancing norms can be maintained. Mid-day meals will be provided to students.

To attend in-person classes students will need parental consent. Parents have been asked by authorities to provide detailed information about their ward's health and history of travel, both national and international. Proper arrangements for online classes have also been put into place for those who do not wish to resume physical classes just yet.
