Azerbaijan lifts requirement of 1.5-meter distance between school desks

A requirement related to classrooms and teachers' rooms has been lifted in Azerbaijan, as reflected in the resolution of Prime Minister Ali Asadov to repeal Resolution No.12 of January 22, 2021 "On additional measures to organize the activities of educational institutions operating in the territory of the Republic of Azerbaijan during the special quarantine regime."

With the change in the decision, the requirement to ensure that the desks (tables) are arranged at a distance of 1.5 m from each other was eliminated.

Another change abolished the requirement to place beds in the dormitory at a distance of at least 1.5 meters.
