“This is also an information channel for parents to consult and understand the wishes and desires of parents. The epidemic situation is also gradually stabilizing and under control, I think getting information is also very useful, to poll parents and students if they want to return to school in the near future or not.” Mrs. Hang said.

By April 4, the Department of Education and Training will aggregate information from all schools about this. After the survey information is available, the Department of Education and Training will report it to the Department as a basis to advise the City People’s Committee.
