Description

Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine has led to the destruction of much of the country’s education system. Thousands of schools and universities have been damaged or destroyed, with teachers, students and parents killed in Russian attacks. With the education of millions of children interrupted, how should policymakers, schools and teachers respond? This episode of Top Class explores how to support the education of Ukrainian children, both inside and outside the country. Frederik Smets, an Education Officer at the UN Refugee Agency’s Regional Bureau for Europe, talks to OECD Editor Duncan Crawford about the challenges children and teachers face and what can be done to help.

The OECD is working to support Ukraine’s agenda for reform, recovery and reconstruction. This report looks at how other countries’ educational experiences can support Ukraine’s plans to remodel its education system: https://www.oecd.org/education/Lessons-during-Crisis.pdf
