Do unprecedented drops in student performance signal a global education crisis? | Experts’ Opinions

Despite significant aid disbursements for education, the sector has apparently not fully recovered from the negative effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The latest OECD-run survey – the PISA study – has revealed significant results, one being the ‘unprecedented drop’ in maths and reading performance. The closure of educational institutions and the transition to online or hybrid learning have had a negative impact on academic performance.
