Extension. As announced to La República, the Minister of Education, Rosendo Serna, confirmed that the pedagogical days in public schools will be complete in 2022 and that each educational institution will have autonomy to elaborate the programming according to its context.
“The goal is to start the school year and classes in person in March. For the rural area, with greater presence and in the urban area, with the analysis and autonomy that must be given to the educational institutions. I cannot give a prescription to a school as if the country were a standard. The problem in each one is the product of the analysis of the context. What needs to be done is to strengthen autonomy, but to generate regulations for the UGEL to provide technical assistance and permanent monitoring, ”he declared to this medium.
