South schools face building shortages

As the 2026-2027 school year approaches in Lebanon, schools in the south and Nabatieh face significant challenges related to security conditions and damage to buildings, which hinder the return to in-person education in many secondary schools. The Ministry of Education has prepared a plan to continue education that includes in-person classes in safe schools and remote learning in affected areas, while maintaining the "mother school" concept and temporarily relocating to alternative buildings. However, actual implementation faces resource shortages, delays in issuing clear decisions from the ministry, and a range of situations — from destroyed schools, to those with poor infrastructure, to partially damaged facilities — all of which threaten the continuity of education and the return of students. Teachers and students also face difficulties accessing schools, securing funding, and establishing internet connectivity. Additionally, damaged buildings and a series of administrative and organizational issues persist, requiring clear and swift solutions to ensure the stability of the educational process in the region.
