Kids return to Philippine schools post-Covid

Manila: Millions of students across the Philippines returned to the classroom post-Covid- 19 on Monday, after one of the world’s longest school closures. Almost half the country’s schools resumed in-person classes after more than two years of distance learning, BBC reported. The Philippines was one of the last few countries to transition back to face-to-face learning after Covid struck. But some experts say the prolonged suspension of in-person lessons has worsened an education crisis.
