Metropolitan High School, etc. will be closed on the 7th and 8th of next month New Coronavirus April 24, 12:53
When the Tokyo Metropolitan Board of Education considers measures immediately before, considering the trends in the countries that have issued an emergency declaration, etc. for metropolitan high schools that will be closed until the 6th of next month due to the new coronavirus In order to avoid the confusion, I decided to close the school on the 7th and 8th after the consecutive holidays.
Due to the spread of the new coronavirus, metropolitan high schools, junior high and high schools, and special needs schools have been closed until the end of the large holidays until the 6th of the month after the start of the new semester.
However, the national emergency declaration and the period when the capital is requesting to refrain from going off or going out are until the 6th of next month, and according to the education board of the capital, according to the trends of the national capital, If you consider how to deal with it, it is likely that there will be confusion at the school floor. In addition, it is difficult to give sufficient notice to parents and others in advance.
For this reason, the Tokyo Metropolitan Board of Education decided to close the school even on the 7th and 8th after the consecutive holidays, and notified each school.
As for special needs schools, we ask each school to allow children to spend their time at home if it is difficult for them.
In addition, the board of education of the metropolitan government has notified the board of education of the municipalities that have jurisdiction over elementary and junior high schools to take measures based on the response of the metropolitan school.
