Interrupted Education in India (Andhra Pradesh and Telangana)

Support for Students During the COVID-19 School Shutdowns

Abstract

This report presents findings from the Young Lives COVID-19 survey of head teachers in the states of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana in India.

It provides a snapshot of the support that secondary schools in the Young Lives site were providing for students and their families during COVID-19 school closures between March and July 2020, and the challenges they faced in doing this. The survey investigated teaching and learning during school closures, with a focus on accessible and meaningful learning for students and the impacts of the school closures on young people.

This report is part of a series of outputs based on the Young Lives COVID-19 survey of head teachers conducted in India and Ethiopia as part of the Gendered Young Lives: Opportunities, Learning and Positive Development research programme.
