The decrease in math performance resulting from the two to three weeks winter break extension is equivalent to two months of learning.

These results suggest that the effect of COVID-19 (coronavirus) will be relevant, and remedial policies will be required to mitigate learning losses. 2020-06-25T20:57:35Z 2020-06-25T20:57:35Z 2020-06 Working Paper http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/203901592853098615/The-Effect-of-the-H1N1-Pandemic-on-Learning-What-to-Expect-with-COVID-19 http://hdl.handle.net/10986/33997 English CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Publications & Research Publications & Research :: Working Paper Latin America & Caribbean Brazil
