Schools in the State look set to reopen as per schedule on January 1 after the Christmas holidays.
There was confusion over the school reopening on the first day of the new year as the Statewide National Service Scheme (NSS) camps for higher secondary and vocational higher secondary students will conclude only that evening.
However, there has been no direction from the government on changing the reopening date as yet. Schools will stick to the academic calendar and reopen on January 1. There is no need for declaring a holiday that day, say higher secondary officials.
