We find that overall loss in learning for every child enrolled in school even in the most optimistic scenario is expected to be substantial and the economic implications of the learning losses are huge. Available data also indicates that remote learning requires to be made more effective. It is hoped that the insights from this note will be useful for the government, non-government, private sector and civil society engaged in education service delivery as they are attempting to forge effective partnerships during and after the crisis. There is an urgent need to substantially reduce additional dropouts and absenteeism through stipends and safe school opening and communication campaigns. 650 4 Coronavirus 650 4 COVID-19 650 4 Distance Learning 650 4 Education 650 4 Education For All 650 4 Primary Education 650 4 Secondary Education 700 1 Sharma, Uttam. 830 0 Other papers. 830 0 World Bank e-Library. 906 BOOK
