COVID-19 AND SCHOOL RESPONSES: TRACKING AND ANALYSIS

Globally, 70% of countries closed schools within the same 10-day period from 15 March 2020. The closures spread much faster than the virus. More than a billion students have been affected by school closures.  


At the onset of the pandemic, Education.org started tracking and publishing global and country data around school closures and reopening alongside COVID-19 caseloads trends, in response to direct requests from leaders across governments and society to address the challenges of school closures and reopening decisions across the world. 


Education.org’s tracking tools and analyses fill the need for up-to-date, practical and impartial information. These resources highlight factors that guide decisions to reopen schools, to keep them open, and policies and measures to accompany safe school reopening decisions and potential reclosures.

PURPOSE AND IMPACT OF THIS WORK

The purpose of this work is to provide education leaders and practitioners evidence-led and practical tools and guidance to support them in schools closure and reopening decisions. Rigorous and careful monitoring of experiences from all countries – those who have reopened once or even twice, and those that remain closed – offer a deeply valuable and growing fact base in which to anchor future decisions and help get the most marginalised students back to schools as soon as possible.   

 

  • At the country level – it is crucial to have information and data on which countries are reopening schools and how to best design context-appropriate education policy responses and reopening strategies. Looking at how others are proceeding and learning from different approaches during this crisis is critical. Our resources can be of use for those still in a first wave who have not yet opened, or those who will face questions about what to do with schools in midst of subsequent waves. 
  • At the global level – uncovering facts around how others are making decisions in the face of the pandemic and tracking the consequences is crucial to better understand the extent to which education systems are affected across countries.


In a much politicised debate, this work aims at breaking and correcting assumptions to ensure decisions are informed with evidence.
