\nThe council granted the Ministry of Education one week to assess and set the start dates for other grades.
\nThe Director-General noted strong parental desire to resume schooling to compensate for years lost during the conflict. He explained that the school year start date depends on students who studied abroad last year and in some states\u2014these are a significant portion who stopped attending in Sudan awaiting the school start. He added that the new school year will encourage Sudanese abroad to return.
\nHe also acknowledged challenges resulting from the war, including destruction and looting of schools and loss of furniture and textbooks, but affirmed that efforts would continue throughout the year to address these problems.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
