Are Uganda’s children missing the classroom?

Download Are Uganda’s children missing the classroom?

Uganda’s government closed schools when the pandemic hit in March 2020.
Some children haven’t been back to the classroom since.
And others only returned for a few weeks.
Uganda is the last country in Africa to keep its schools fully shuttered.
President Museveni says in person teaching will resume in January at the earliest.
So, has it been worth it? And how are Uganda’s children coping without school?
