All cultural centers in the Kingdom are excluded from returning to work, in light of the epidemiological situation in the Kingdom, according to what was stated in the plan and matrix of stages of dealing with the corona pandemic announced by the government last week, the Director of the Special Education Department at the Ministry of Education, Fayez Al-Ma'arif, said on Wednesday, June 10. 

He stated that some cultural centers are announcing that they will start receiving students and are asking people to register in courses, describing this as an explicit violation, the Jordan News Agency (Petra) reported. 

The Ministry of Education will work in coordination with the Ministry of Industry, Trade and Supply and the Health Ministry to intensify inspection campaigns in the morning and evening and fine the violating centers, as "this endangers the students' health and safety," Ma'arif confirmed.
