About 150,000 senior secondary students in Hong Kong returned to school Wednesday after a four-month class suspension due to the coronavirus pandemic, but up to 2,500 of the city’s pupils who live across the border will continue to study online.
Students from Form Three to Five started half-day classes under a phased resumption schedule, followed by lower forms next month.
Education officials are still discussing with Shenzhen authorities arrangements for the daily commute of cross-border pupils, including mandatory virus tests and possible direct transport between checkpoints and schools.
One hopes that this is the beginning of a more normal school program and students don’t suffer the same types of disruption that happened recently.
