The secretary of education expresses his thankfulness to the officers and the staffs in all sectors including health, transport and the defense for their contribution extended to make the decision taken by the ministry of education for bringing students to the schools and the complete procedure submitted for it a successful one while accepting responsibly the challenge present in the face of new normal covid situation. The secretary of education also expressed his thankfulness to the education officers at provincial, zonal and divisional levels, principals, teachers and parents who assist to implement the health guidelines properly at school level.
