JAKARTA - DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan implemented distance learning activities so that there was no teaching and learning process in schools for two weeks to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus.
"Close all schools within the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government and will carry out the teaching and learning process using the distance method," said DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan, at City Hall, Jakarta, Saturday.
After the two-week closure, Anies said he would review learning activities at schools and the development of the spread of the COVID-19 virus in Jakarta.
Anies said the school would carry out learning methods using a digital system to reduce direct contact that could potentially transmit the COVID-19 virus.
Anies revealed that the decision to stop the learning process at school was to maintain the safety and health of the people of Jakarta by reducing activities outside the home.
Anies also announced the postponement of the national exams for high school and vocational high school students in connection with instructions to prevent the spread of the Corona virus (COVID-19).
"For participants in the national exam which will take place tomorrow Monday it has also been decided to postpone it," said Anies.
That means, the implementation of the national exams of 124,000 SMA and SMK participants in Jakarta had to be postponed. Anies said that he had coordinated with the Ministry of Education and Culture regarding the implementation of the UN.
"Kemendikbud gives authority to the regions to determine the implementation time," he said.
