After being closed for a little over four weeks, senior schools, colleges and universities in Bangladesh have reopened for in-person classes from Tuesday. Students who have received at least two doses of the coronavirus vaccine are being allowed to return for now while others will have to continue online and TV classes.
The government announced the closure of educational institutions temporarily on January 21, with coronavirus cases rising since December due to the highly-infectious omicron strain.
Initially, schools and colleges were to remain closed until February 6, which was later extended by two more weeks to February 21.
