Online training should be alternated with face-to-face training, so that distance learning should not last for more than 2-3 weeks. This is the proposal of the Ministry of Education, the Minister of Education Krasimir Valchev told Nova TV. 

Next week it will be decided whether students will have to wear a mask during classes in the classrooms as well. 
"We offered regional administrative authorities options for alternating students. Our general guidelines are that children should not study online for more than 2-3 weeks. There are currently far fewer cases of coronavirus in younger students than in older ones. Today 44% of the students will study in an electronic environment, and yesterday it was 38-39% ", Minister Valchev explained.
