social distancing is enforced again, the number of students who can go to school and take classes has decreased. However, some regions do not follow this government policy, and in half of the elementary schools in Seoul, all students went to school. 



For more details, reporter Kim Kyung-hee will tell you. 



<Reporter> In 



accordance with the Ministry of Education's guidelines to reduce the density by two-thirds, the school has decided to conduct distance learning in one grade every day.

Starting today (20th), all elementary, middle and high schools in the metropolitan area In the case of overcrowded and overcrowded schools in non-metropolitan areas, despite the Ministry of Education's directive that only two-thirds of students attend school, six cities and provinces across the country adhered to the principle of full school attendance. 



This is in accordance with the proviso clause that gave the district and schools discretion. 



In the elementary schools in Seoul, 53% of the total students attended school. 



Most of these schools are going on winter break this week, because if you subtract three days from the preparation period, you only need one or two classes, and it is less confusing to go to school. 



It is a measure to prevent the spread of Corona nationwide, but some point out that it is wrong to put only the situation of each school first.

past week, the average number of confirmed students per day was 844, The number of confirmed student cases was 1,107, the highest in a day.

However, the number of people 12 to 17 years old who received the first vaccine was 189,000 last week, about twice that of the previous week.
