Since the corona has arrived in the world, the lives and routines have changed drastically. Among the other things that are effected nwegatively by it, education is one of the most badly influenced domain. Online classes in the name of education were nothing more than a tool to collect fees for the school. Being a mother of two young kids, I had to go through too much responsibility when the online classes were going on. I was the school and i was the tuition. The kids themselves were unable to understand what was taught in those virtual classes. I remember I used to spend 6 to 8 hours with my kids helping in their academic stuff, and still the progress was not very satisfying.
Thanksfully, the school opened some months ago and the life of kids and the mother came on tract. I was thinking the regularity of schools wouldn't be disturbed now, as the vaccination is already in and the people are forced to be vaccinated. Nevertheless, the time revealed that I was wrong.
For the last couple of months, we had been hearing the news of the fifth wave of corona virus. Finally, this week the government has announced that due to increase in corona cases there is a need of strict SOPs and so the academic institutes should reduce their attendence to half. I wonder if corona has any specific rivalry with educational institutes, so the government take step to protect them first 🤔. We do not see SOPs any other where. In fact, at the hospitals crowds can be witnessed. Anyways.....!
This academic session was started in August, 2021. Ideally, the next session should have started in August 2022, but the government has ordered to finish this session till March. In this way this academic year is not comprised of the whole year, and this way there is more work to do in a shorter time. Icing on the cake is that the children now have to attend school 3 days a week.
When the schools were opened, I felt relaxed. The routine became quite organized and my son showed some progress and interest in his studies. Now, it is again a backward pull that this new government order has given.
My younger son is still going to school 5 days a week from Monday to Friday (as his school says that they have enough space to maintain SOPs with 100% strength. However, my elder one has to go on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. This routine not only snatches from me the feel of weekend but also bounds me in other ways too. I cannot now think of visiting my mom. 😑....
Huuuh! I wish the corona would end soon and we may come to our old normal again.
