[Asia Economy (Suwon) = Reporter Lee Young-gyu] There was one school conducting remote classes in Gyeonggi Province.


The Gyeonggi Provincial Office of Education's School Opening Preparation Support Team announced that, as of this date, among the 4,609 kindergartens, elementary, middle, and high schools in the province, only one middle school that had a confirmed case on the 11th switched to remote classes.


Schools that temporarily suspended in-person classes and conducted remote classes due to local confirmed cases increased from 9 high schools in the Anseong area on the 20th of last month to 278 schools including Bucheon and Guri areas on the 27th of the same month, then decreased to 5 schools on the 12th.


Jo Do-yeon, Deputy Head of the Gyeonggi Office of Education's School Opening Preparation Support Team, said, "Schools are making efforts to maintain school quarantine while conducting both in-person and remote classes," adding, "To continue in-person school openings and prevent local spread of infectious diseases through schools, careful personal hygiene and health management by students and parents are necessary."


The Gyeonggi Office of Education reported that since the start of in-person classes on the 20th of last month, concerns about community infection or spread of COVID-19 still exist, but immediate responses to suspected symptoms or similar cases, along with strong quarantine and prevention activities, have gradually stabilized in-person classes at each school.
