Give State Education Dept, PPD, school admin power to close schools - NUTP

COVID-19 | The National Union of the Teaching Profession (NUTP) today urged that the power to make extraordinary judgments such as closing schools be given to the State Education Department (JPN) if there are cases of Covid-19 involving students or teachers.

Its president, Aminuddin Awang said the same consideration should also be given to the District Education Office (PPD) and the school administration so that quick action could be taken.
