Resumen
Descripción
School closures and learning loss during
the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic can have a long-term
negative impact on the current cohort of school children.
Global evidence from past health and disaster-related
emergencies show that the impact extends well beyond the
period of the disaster or pandemic. It is also likely to
affect the children’s economic potential and productivity in
adulthood, thus undermining the country’s competitiveness.
This policy note analyzes key issues related to the current
schooling and learning situation and proposes policy options
to prepare for in-person schooling when this is possible.
Two nationwide surveys in the Philippines provide a snapshot
of the conditions of education in the country: the High
Frequency Monitoring (HFM) Household Survey carried out in
December 2020 and the Coronavirus (COVID-19) Low Income
Household Panel and Economic (HOPE) Survey targeting poor
and near-poor households carried out in October 2020. The
key issues emerging from these data and policy
recommendations are summarized in this report.
