This work has been used and praised for its distinctive value-added and user-friendliness by National Education and Reopening Task Force leaders, as an instrumental tool in their decision making around school reopening approaches and policies. It has also received positive feedback from education leaders at bilateral agencies and foundations.
These resources have been accessed in more than 160 countries by more than 2000 users.
This work has been featured widely in key global media and in regional outlets across Africa, Asia, Europe and Latin America.
Our team at Education.org has been tracking the experiences of c. 200 countries, collecting data dating back to January 27th to analyse and compare school reopening patterns and characteristics (such as distancing, hygiene, safety measures, pedagogical and policy responses), and seven-day moving average of COVID-19 new daily cases.
Our tracking looks at primary and secondary schools only.
Tracking is based on a combination of quantitative data (UNESCO, Our World in Data, World Bank), and rigorous daily review of ministry reports, country response plans and policies, press and social media.
We use Our World in Data for COVID-19 daily infection data (per 100,00 population, 7-day rolling average), UNESCO for school status and enrolment data and the World Bank for country data.
Some countries devolve decision making and there can be significant variation within parts of a country or even between schools.
Infection wave patterns are calculated by comparing the 28-day and 7-day averages for daily new COVID-19 cases to determine where they align for a minimum period of 14 days. This typically points to a sustained change in the wave pattern and helps to eliminate shorter-term ‘blips’ which are much more common but less important in the analysis.
We conduct a rigorous review of ministry reports, country response plans and policies, press and social media. Main information sources consulted by our team per country are mentioned at the bottom of our Country tracker.
All countries where data is reported for these three elements are included in our tracking:
School status is defined as per UNESCO:
