The new timings have allowed headteachers to make a recess schedule for 10 minutes each day, after consultation with the concerned Controlling Officer. Recess will not be available on Fridays. The authorities have also urged schools to maintain social distancing during the lunch breaks.

The schools reopened last month after a closure of six months due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The education department has, therefore, directed school administrations to ensure that all standard operating procedures (SOPs) are enforced.
