After the end of the holiday, classes in North Rhine-Westphalia are to be continued in the classrooms in the coming week, according to School Minister Yvonne Gebauer (FDP).

"There will be face-to-face lessons," said Gebauer on Wednesday in the WDR2 morning magazine in response to questions from listeners.

Alternating lessons with the division into study groups that are taught alternately in schools and at home would represent a maximum burden for all teachers and would be viewed as the worst option.

Düsseldorf - Emergency care should also be set up for children whose parents are active in the so-called critical infrastructure.

Face-to-face teaching is the top priority, stressed the school minister.
