Jordan, UNICEF Announce Initiative to Educate 1 Million Children

Learning Bridges is a series of weekly activities based on the core curriculum that will be distributed by schools to all students from Grades 4 to 9 to accelerate children and young people's learning and support parents, teachers, students and communities to work together to adapt to the new normal of combining learning at home and school, the statement said.

Minister of Education Tayseer Nueimi said: “Learning Bridges is an innovative solution that enables students to recover and accelerate their learning whether schools are open, partially closed or closed. It does so by effectively bridging the link between home and school, technology and textbooks, knowledge and applied learning.

“Together with UNICEF, the ministry is making this resource available for every teacher, parent and student from Grade 4 to 9 in Jordan.”

Nueimi added
