Also according to Ms. Ha, the school has arranged 10 teachers to teach online for students at this school point. Every day, students still study full periods, 2 sessions/day according to the plan. Teachers send classroom guides to the principal so that the school can attend classes, check the organization of teaching as well as the number of students participating.
The rate of students participating in online learning reaches about 70%. The rest are mainly due to parents working far away, students living with grandparents or lack of learning equipment. When returning to school, the school will organize make-up classes to consolidate knowledge" - Ms. Ha said.
