School principals will have the freedom to decide which of the students to attend classes and which to learn from their homes, the Minister of Education Prof. Nikolay Denkov told Nova TV. 

"Some of the principals are ready for a hybrid form - 50% in class and 50% remotely, with students changing every week, while others prefer the training to take place in two shifts," he added. However, the minister stressed that if the percentage of students infected with Covid-19 in a school rises sharply, it will be closed. 
"Our task is to have maximum face-to-face training, but without endangering the health of children and teachers," said Nikolay Denkov.
