Longer Days Not Enough
Palestinian schools returned to a five-day school week at the beginning of November, after years of operating just three days a week. Support teachers have been brought in to cover the additional days, particularly for grades one through four, while regular teachers continue their usual schedules. The move aims to reduce learning loss and restore regular schooling, and is expected to create jobs for around 3,000 teachers. Educators view it as a necessary step, but one that is not enough on its own to close learning gaps. Its success will require remedial plans, assessments of students’ levels, coordination, teacher training and sustainable funding, as well as an evaluation of the results before the program is expanded.
