This has happened despite the efforts and the rapid adaptation by teachers, indicates an e-learning analysis by the Ministry of Education.
One-third of children have not been devoting enough time to study. Non-attendance is up by 70%.
38% of children do not have access to electronic devices, only 43,5% of the children in big cities and 12.5% of the children in villages have access to the internet.
