Education Ministry announces summer classes due to high level of absenteeism

The Ministry for Education has announced that the government has allocated over €250,000 into summer classes for students who were set back by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Education minister Justyne Caruana, together with Parliamentary Secretary for EU funds Stefan Zrinzo Azzopardi welcomed the programme, which will be provided to students of both primary and secondary level. The catch-up classes will see to provide revision of work done during the previous scholastic year, which also showed to have a high level of absenteeism from a considerable number of students.
