Schools to reopen in Hyderabad on Wednesday

HYDERABAD: Brushing aside the mixed signals, schools in the twin cities scheduled to reopen on October 12 plan to abide by the academic calendar.Some of them, however, put the onus on the parents to ensure the safety of their wards.‘’The school my children studies in, has decided not to provide buses for transporting them for fear of buses being waylaid by protestors,” said Ateeq Siddiqui, general secretary of Greater Hyderabad Schools Parents Association.Schools such as Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan and NASR school have decided to stick to the plan and will reopen on Wednesday, while some others have suspended classes for the students except for Class 10 and 12 to avoid conflict.Some schools which had to postpone their mid-term examinations due to the bandh have the additional task of conducting the tests before resuming the classes.Most of the schools have been provided police protection.Most of the corporate junior college students continue to enjoy their holidays as any decision will be taken only by the end of this week.
