EENEE publishes a policy brief on Educational preparedness and policy learning during the COVID-19 pandemic

EENEE is pleased to announce a recent publication – a policy brief on Educational preparedness and policy learning during the COVID-19 pandemic  prepared by EENEE Scienficif Coordinator Miroslav Beblavý and Barbara Bačová (ESPRI).

Which factors drove the comparatively different performances of Member States with regard to school closures and remote learning during the pandemic? No single aspect of governments’ approaches ensured success. This Policy Brief explores the roles of two factors:

  • preparedness for the pandemic, especially as manifested in the extent and areas of investments in digital learning; and
  • the ability of policy-makers to respond to the changing needs of the education sector as the pandemic progressed.

The Policy Brief is available in three European languages (English, French and German).
