The Bucharest City School Inspectorate has received 100 requests from educational units to suspend activity with physical presence, which represents nearly one quarter of Bucharest's schools, announced, on Tuesday evening, interim Education Minister Sorin Cimpeanu.
"Until this time, the Bucharest City School Inspectorate has received 100 requests to suspend activities with physical presence. (...) Nearly a quarter of Bucharest's schools in online system," said Sorin Cimpeanu, in a phone intervention at Digi 24.
"From the discussions that I had yesterday and today with the county school inspectorates it came out that they must be approved [requests to move online - e.n.]. When there is this sentiment of fear they must be approved, because otherwise, surely if the parents are afraid enough to not send children to school, there's no point to not approve these requests at the level of the inspectorate," said the interim Education Minister.
