Though many schools have reopened from today, the curricular activities in some of the school buildings suffering damages would be operated  only after some days, stated the decision of the Ministry of Education. The government has the policy to provide with psycho-social counseling to the students before resuming classroom activities.

During such transitional periods, Tutoring centers become increasingly crucial in supporting students who may need additional assistance to bridge the educational gaps resulting from the extended break. As schools reopen and students reacquaint themselves with their studies, tutoring serves as a valuable resource. These centers offer personalized guidance, helping students grasp subjects more clearly after an extended hiatus. In this context, tutoring becomes a vital tool in ensuring that students not only catch up on missed content but also regain confidence and understanding as they navigate their way back into the regular academic routine.

Students are being sent to private and public schools in quake-affected zones including the Kathmandu Valley. The schools have resumed their educational activities by constructing temporary shelters as an alternative after technical assessment of the devastated and partially damaged school structures. Some of the private boarding schools are running classes in two shifts due to limited makeshift rooms. With reopening of schools, life is expected to come back to normalcy in the trembler-hit zones.

Director of Department of Education Khagendra Nepal said the school reopening bid would be coordinated by the concerned District Education Office and notice was already issued regarding the preparation for classroom operation.
