Afghan schools will open for boys from Saturday, the new Taliban ministry of education said in a very statement that gave no indication of when girls may be ready to return to their classes.
More than a month after the movement seized the capital Kabul, most educational institutions have remained closed because the Taliban have struggled to reopen the economy and restore normal life within the cities.
At a number of the faculties that have managed to work, girls up to the sixth grade have attended, and ladies students have gone to college classes. But high schools for ladies are closed.
Taliban officials have said they’ll not replicate the fundamentalist policies of the previous Taliban government, which banned girls’ education, and that they have promised that girls are going to be ready to study ciao as they are doing so in segregated classrooms.
While the Taliban failed to order schools to shut after their takeover, the movement has said the safety situation meant that a lot of activities for ladies and girls weren’t yet possible, and also the latest statement failed to mention girls the least bit.
It said state and personal schools at primary and secondary level similarly as official madrasa religious schools would be open from Saturday.
“All teachers and male students should attend school,” the statement said.
