Why are Libyan children out of school?

Zuzanna Quality Education

Schoolchildren in Libya are currently affected by both, the effects of the recent war, as well as by the high numbers of COVID-19, preventing them from attending classes.Schools have tried different tactics from opening outside to seeking donations for extra disinfectants and facemasks to allow teaching indoors. Yet, many schools have not been operating for up to six months. However, the Libyan government has recently decided that everyone will have to pass an exam in order to progress to the next grade. This decision leaves many students with the prospect of repeating classes, which are also not guaranteed in the current circumstances. “What will students do if there is a new wave of coronavirus? They will miss two years of their education. This is a big problem for parents and students. We will have a generation of students with weak education,” explained university professor, Ahmed Falaq.
