COVID-19 impact on Education

According to a report by the UNESCO, 24 million may drop out of school due to COVID-19 impact.
More than 1.6 billion learners across the world have been affected by the disruption of the education system.
Almost 24 million children are at risk of not returning to school next year due to the economic fallout of COVID-19.
Girls and young women are likely to be disproportionately affected. School closures make them more vulnerable to child marriage, early pregnancy and gender-based violence.
The COVID-19 crisis is likely to increase that financing gap by up to one-third.
The educational financing gap is also likely to increase by one third.
The pandemic has also highlighted existing disparities, with vulnerable populations in low-income countries taking a harder and longer hit.
In the second quarter of 2020, 86% of children at the primary level have been effectively out of school in poor countries, compared to just 20% in highly developed countries
