JAKARTA - The Depok City Education Office made a bold decision. 981 PAUD will start implementing Limited Face-to-face Learning (PTMT) on October 4th.

Disdik ensures that 90 percent of early childhood education institutions (PAUD) both formal and non-formal are ready to implement PTMT. From kindergarten to playgroup.

"Of the 981 PAUD, consisting of TK, KB, TPA, Post PAUD, TAAM and others in Depok, the majority or 90 percent are ready for Limited PTM starting October 4," said Head of Early Childhood Education and Community Education (PAUD DIKMAS), Yulia Oktavia after reviewing the PTMT simulation at the Global Achievement Kindergarten, Rangapan Jaya Village, Pancoran Mas, Tuesday, September 28.

It is brave when a number of areas have formed clusters in schools. Even in Solo, there are teachers who do not comply with health protocols, so that hundreds of students there are immediately carried out by the City Government for antigen swab.

According to the Depok Mayor's Regulation, Yulia continued, the implementation of PTMT at the PAUD level is only limited to five students in one class. Students are also only allowed to be in school for a maximum period of two hours.

"Learning will be divided according to sessions, depending on the decision of each school. At most students may attend face-to-face school, limited to two days a week," he added.

Yulia explained that while they were at school, students were not allowed to bring food, they were only allowed to bring drinks. This is to minimize the spread of the Corona virus or Covid-19.

He hopes that all preschool education units can implement strict health protocols during PTMT. Namely keeping students distance in class, providing hand washing facilities, checking body temperature, and so on.

"We want the controlling of teachers to be improved to see the implementation of the program for students and school residents," he said.
