Education minister Dr Dipu Moni on Thursday said there will be five days of classes in classrooms according to the new curriculum approved by Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.
"Last year our curriculum had six days of classes...But we decided to reduce it to five days due to power crisis. As per our latest decision, classes will be held five days a week from this year," Dr Dipu Moni told newsmen while visiting Chandpur Circuit house.
"The teachers as well as the students will get a break for two days because they also need rest. The new curriculum was approved keeping the fact in mind," she added.
