The ongoing Middle East conflict has led to disruptions in global energy supplies, prompting authorities to suspend regular classes and introduce extended holidays with online learning. However, with institutions reopening from April 1, inconsistent policies have emerged across provinces, with varying weekly schedules being implemented.
Despite the resumption of in-person classes, uncertainty remains as the global situation continues to evolve, raising questions about whether the earlier closure or the current reopening was premature.
Frequent shifts between physical and online learning risk disrupting students’ education, particularly as many were not adequately prepared for remote classes. Younger students, in particular, face challenges adapting to online learning, while parents struggle with limited access to devices and increased responsibilities at home.
Experts stress that decisions affecting education require careful planning to avoid repeated disruptions and ensure continuity in learning.
