KSA: KSA: Remote learning to continue for elementary school students after ministry scraps Oct 31 return – Gulf Digital News

Saudi's Education Ministry has announced that elementary school students will continue remote learning, just days before students across the country were scheduled to return to in-person classes.

The proposed October 31 return to in-person teaching has been postponed for safety reasons, the ministry said, adding that further epidemiological data is required before the resumption of in-person learning for children below the age of 12.

“The ministry will continue its efforts to offer virtual learning to the age group through ‘Madrasati’ (online platform) for the elementary level and ‘Rawdaty’ for preschool level,” it said.
