The term "school closure" refers to the decision by a school or educational institution to shut down temporarily, permanently or partially. This can be due to various reasons such as financial difficulties, low enrollment numbers, natural disasters, health and safety concerns, or other unforeseen circumstances that make it difficult for the school to continue operating normally. When schools close, students may have to transfer to another institution, teachers may lose their jobs, and communities can be impacted by reduced services and economic losses.
