Tuesday was the delayed start of the second semester but more than 200 schools in Greater Bangkok were still flooded and remained closed.
Up to 90 schools in Pathum Thani, 54 in Nakhon Pathom, 50 in Nonthaburi and 11 in Bangkok were expected to reopen next Tuesday, said Pitsanu Tulasuk, deputy secretary-general of the Basic Education Commission.
However, if any of them were still inundated by then, they might postpone their classes again, he said.
