PUTRAJAYA schools will be closed tomorrow due to haze, according to the Education Ministry. The decision comes after Air Pollutant Index readings taken at 5pm today indicated hazardous air quality. All education institutions impacted by the closure must shift to home-based teaching and learning (PdPR) to maintain students' educational continuity.
The department emphasized the importance of considering students' capabilities, access to resources, and teachers' readiness in implementing these measures. Teachers and support staff will also be permitted to work from home during the closure, pending approval from the education minister. The Education Ministry remains vigilant, continuously monitoring Air Pollutant Index readings and prepared to take further action as needed, in line with its guidelines.
Parents and guardians are advised to stay informed through official announcements and cooperate fully to safeguard their children's well-being. The primary focus remains on ensuring the safety, health, and welfare of students and educational community members.
