Recently, educational institutions faced closures due to extreme weather conditions, including severe heat waves and winter conditions. A Facebook post by the Ministry of Education hinted at extending school days to Fridays to make up for lost time. However, this statement was later retracted, citing a technical error. The Ministry clarified that no decision had been made regarding Friday classes but affirmed the continuation of Saturday classes at the secondary level.

Primary schools remained closed until early May.
