Hello Local Guides!
Hope all of you are well.
Today I am sharing to you all my last Meet-up RECAP which was
Let’s Mapping for Students Safety-P2 held on 20 March 2022.
Worldwide Covid-19 has caused massive disasters that have disrupted normal human life, as well as radically changed children’s education. Bangladesh’s educational institutions, as well as some of the world’s educational institutions, were closed for the longest time in the world and conducted online based education through which primary and infant children could not fully enjoy their education and happiness.
The Government of Bangladesh emphasizes the importance of providing equitable and participatory distance learning services to all children during school closures, in addition to providing assistance to ensure the Health and overall well-being of children. Covid-19 has changed the context of worldwide learning.
Thus the monotony of children’s education has gone away and parents are also somewhat reluctant to send their children to school because children are unaware of safety. Gradually, educational institutions of all levels have started opening in different parts of Bangladesh and lastly, the Bangladesh Board of Education has directed to conduct physical classes directly in the primary schools.
The Guardians have been able to know by using Google Maps to find out what kind of Safety measures are in place at the educational institution where their children are attending, so they can be a little more confident and for this purpose I hosted this Meet-up and I was able to update as much as I could.

Barishal Zilla School is considered to be the oldest school in Barisal city and it is currently at its peak of popularity. The school authorities have taken various measures to protect their students from Covid-19. As you enter through the main gate of the school you can see that there are various instructions for staying safe which is really very helpful and there is a hand washing area for the students to hand sanitizer.
Talking to the school authorities, I came to know that they are giving lessons for each class one day so that the students can avoid gathering.
On that opportunity I tell them about my activities and explaining in detail about the features of Google Maps. "They appreciate on my activities and say that it is really a great feature through which we can share our school notices very easily.

Sister’s Day Govt. Primary School
is very popular among the primary schools in Barishal and at present four hundred plus students are studying here. I found out by talking to a madam of this school taking two shift classes to reduce the gathering of students, one shift from 9 am to 12 pm in the morning and anonymous classes from 1 pm to 4 pm in the afternoon. Everyone inside has to attend the class wearing masks.
In the meantime I let her know about Google Maps Apps so that they can share their next updates via Google Maps. She said it is really helpful that they will think about it.

পলাশপুর আলহাজ্ব দলিল উদ্দিন সরকারি প্রাথমিক বিদ্যালয় is popular school in Palashpur. Poor family children living in Palashpur come to this government school to be educated in primary education. I have noticed here that the teachers are teaching the students while wearing masks but many of the students have been wearing masks and some of them have not been wearing masks.
The good thing is that this school has instructions to follow all kinds of hygiene rules to be safe from Covid-19.

Abdul Hakim Government Primary School is not well known.
There are only about 100 primary students, half of whom attend and half of whom are absent. Due to the small number of students here, they are scheduled to take classes every day. I didn’t see any instructions here to stay safe from Covid-19. But I noticed that some of the students were wearing masks while they were in class.
