The Western Cape is the only province to have launched a programme to make up for learning time lost during the Covid-19 pandemic.Education expert, Professor Ursula Hoadley, says it is concerning that there are no programmes to recoup teaching and learning time lost during the Covid-19 pandemic.Hoadley said pupils still fell behind in critical subjects.
This is according to University of Cape Town Professor Ursula Hoadley, who spoke at the Department of Basic Education's discussion on the Progress in International Reading and Literacy Study 2021 results.
