Primary and secondary educational institutions will have two-day weekend -- Friday and Saturday – from next year, said Education Minister Dipu Moni on Saturday.
"The decision will be effective from next year," Dipu Moni said at the inauguration of the new curriculum of the National Curriculum and Textbook Board (NCTB) on Saturday (19 February).
She made the comments while talking to reporters after attending a programme at The National Curriculum and Textbook Board (NCTB).
She went to NCTB to distribute textbooks among the students of 62 secondary schools in which piloting of the new curriculum will take place.
The upcoming curriculum also proposed a two-day weekend -- Friday and Saturday -- in schools, instead of just Friday.
