KL schools to close Thursday and Friday
News Update by Gavin Gomez of The Star
PETALING JAYA: All schools in Kuala Lumpur will be shutdown Thursday and Friday due to the worsening haze.
The Penilaian Menengah Rendah (PMR) trial examination for Form Three students which was scheduled to begin tomorrow has also been postponed.
Kuala Lumpur education department director Noor Rezan Bapoo Hashim said she had no choice but to suspend classes as there were scores of students who had to be rushed to hospital for breathing difficulties Wednesday.
"The situation was especially bad in SM Sri Pantai where 10 students were rushed to hospitals and clinics nearby," she said, adding that her office was inundated with calls asking if schools were closed.
"I told those who called to suspend classes. I also asked my officers to pass the word around that afternoon session classes had to be cancelled for Wednesday," she added.
Noor Rezan said Kuala Lumpur schools would have to replace their days off with classes on two Saturdays next month – Sept 10 and Sept 24.
"We are monitoring the situation very closely and will keep the public informed," she added.
