Ministry of Education Director Shmuel Abuav referred to the possibility of returning to school after Pesach, telling Galei Tzahal that "there is currently no such decision." He added that "as it was decided on Friday, three weeks ago, to close the education system, all alternatives to returning to routine need to be created at the moment. When will it be? No one knows."
Speaking about the summer vacation, Abuav said: "I think it will be shortened. It has already been shortened by nine days and I believe it will be shortened more than that. I believe that there will be a framework for children and it will also contain an element of learning and social elements of enrichment activities."
