Pramono Says Learning Activities At SMAN 72 Are Normal

JAKARTA - DKI Jakarta Governor Pramono Anung said teaching and learning activities at SMAN 72 Jakarta had returned to normal after the explosion incident that occurred some time ago. The majority of students have returned to school to take part in face-to-face learning.

"Yesterday we also communicated with the Education Office. Now thank God at SMAN 72, the teaching and learning process has indeed been running normally," said Pramono in North Jakarta, Tuesday, November 18.

Although school activities are gradually recovering, Pramono admits that the physical presence of students has not fully returned to its maximum. Some students are still carrying out distance learning due to trauma or during a recovery period.

"Indeed, not all of them were present physically. There are still some who may then be because yesterday there was trauma, injury, and so on who did it online. However, the whole thing has gone well," said Pramono.

Pramono also revealed that the DKI Provincial Government and the Education Office are formulating additional policies to prevent similar incidents from recurring. One of the focuses is limiting students' access to digital content that can encourage dangerous actions.

"Now it is being formulated by the Education Office so that not all children easily see what, events or events like those on YouTube which then inspire our children to do as happened in SMA 72," he said.

For information, since the explosion incident that injured dozens of students, the learning process at SMAN 72 has been temporarily diverted to online learning since November 10. Pramono also revealed the trauma situation that was still felt by a number of students at SMAN 72 Jakarta after the incident of a bomb explosion.

Not only traumatized, Pramono also received a report from the Principal of SMAN 72 Jakarta that a number of students admitted that they wanted to change schools. This condition is considered to be a separate problem that must be handled carefully.

Therefore, Pramono previously did not want to force public schools in Kelapa Gading, North Jakarta to be able to resume teaching and learning activities in schools normally.

"Indeed, what I was surprised about was that the Principal also said that there were several students who were traumatized. Because of the trauma of asking to change schools, yes, but this is a separate problem," said Pramono in North Jakarta, Sunday, November 16.

Pramono has given directions to the school to hold deliberations with teachers and students to determine whether learning can take place again at school.

"So for SMA 72, once again I have communicated directly with the principal yesterday, they will invite students and their teachers to discuss," said Pramono.
