Indian schools suffered some of the world’s longest closures, an average of 69 weeks
For some, the switch from in-class to online learning started well enough. A teacher in one private school in Delhi, the capital, recalls how she stopped worrying about tele-teaching on the very first day, after finding that every student on her screen had respectfully donned the school uniform for the occasion. But for others the switch never happened. A survey in Kolkata last year found that two-fifths of pupils enrolled in state primary schools had no way to follow online materials.
K. Mahalakshmi, who teaches among tribal peoples in the Jawadhu Hills region of Tamil Nadu, a southern state, says the two pandemic years have derailed ten years of work to raise enrolment, especially of girls, in her school. She recalls meeting by chance, during India’s devastating second wave this spring, a student she had noted as particularly bright, but this time in a maternity ward.
