The National Curriculum and Textbook Board has instructed schools to give lessons online to students from Class 6 to Class 9 during Eid-ul-Adha holidays, if necessary.
The Eid vacation will start on June 12 as the festival is set to be held on June 17, while half-yearly assessment under the new curriculum is scheduled to begin on July 3 after the vacation.
The NCTB on Monday said experiential learning must be completed before the Eid vacation, bdnews24.com reports.
A failure to do so may require exploring alternative methods.
In such cases, the NCTB said, teachers will need to conduct online classes and provide guidance to parents through social media groups.
Parents have been advised to monitor students' activities at home for effective supervision.
