UNB, Dhaka :
New students will be admitted to different classes including class l through lottery due to Covid-19 situation, said Education Minister Dr Dipu Moni on Wednesday.
“We have taken a decision to admit students to different classes through lottery after discussion with experts and detail information will be disclosed within December 7,” she said while talking at a virtual press conference.
“This year the catchment area will be enhanced to 50

percent from existing 40 percent and cluster system admission seekers can choose five schools for enrollment,” she said.
Considering the current situation, it is not possible to hold admission test with the students’ physical presence and to arrange online admission test in every school is very tough, said Dipu adding “That’s why the government has taken the decision.”
