Hanover (dpa / lni) - Despite the increasing number of infections, face-to-face classes are again taking place at most schools in Lower Saxony from today.
In all regions with a corona value below 100, the alternating model then applies, in which the classes are taught in groups alternately at home and in the classroom.
This opening, announced weeks ago, was confirmed by the Minister of Culture Grant Hendrik Tonne (SPD) on Friday, although almost every third region in the country is currently breaking the 100 mark.
The value relates to the new infections per 100,000 inhabitants within one week.
On Monday, a week of exercises for dealing with corona self-tests also begins in schools.
However, many schools had not recently received any test kits.
By Wednesday only 400,000 tests had been distributed to secondary schools in southern Lower Saxony, the Hanover region and the Braunschweig area.
