KUANTAN: All 155 schools in Temerloh and Jerantut will reopen tomorrow as temperatures recorded over the past 24-hours were below 36 degrees celsius in the affected areas.
State Education director Datuk Rosdi Ismail said the 117 primary schools and 38 secondary schools in the two districts would resume classes after being closed for two days.
He said the school’s administration had been reminded to take precautionary measures including cancelling all outdoor activities until further notice.
"Lessons will continue normally in classrooms but outdoor activities are still suspended. We will monitor the situation," he said.
On Monday, the Education Ministry ordered all schools in the two districts to be closed for a day after temperature readings exceeded 37 degrees celsius due to the El Nino phenomenon.
The department ordered the schools to remain close today due to continuous extreme hot weather.
There are 50,492 students in Temerloh and Jerantut.
