Five more schools suspend teaching, eight switch to digital education

Another five schools have suspended classroom teaching due to coronavirus, and a further eight is switching to digital education, a government official told public news channel M1 on Monday. The operative board coordinating response to the novel coronavirus epidemic has ordered three schools to halt traditional classroom teaching completely, while another five had to re-introduce digital education in specific classes, Zoltan Maruzsa, secretary of public education, said. Last week, four nurseries and six schools suspended teaching, Maruzsa noted.
