Schools in Selangor, Melaka to close tomorrow over haze
KUALA LUMPUR: All schools and educational institutions under the Education Ministry (MoE) in Selangor and Melaka will be closed from tomorrow due to worsening haze.
The Education Ministry in Selangor and Melaka has announced that all schools and educational institutions will be closed starting tomorrow due to deteriorating air quality caused by haze. Director Datin Wan Nor Ashikin Abu Kassim of the Selangor Department confirmed that the closure will be indefinite, per the Ministry's media statement reflecting unhealthy Air Pollutant Index readings.
Schools are expected to provide home-based teaching and learning (PdPR) to maintain educational continuity. Teachers and support staff are expected to work remotely during the closure, in line with current directives and operational requirements. Parents and guardians have been directed to stay informed through official department updates regarding the reopening.
Melaka's Education, Higher Education, and Religious Affairs Committee head, Datuk Rahmad Mariman, stated that schools would close tomorrow after API levels in certain regions surpassed 150. The closure was a result of ongoing monitoring by the Melaka Department and reports from the Department of Environment.
