Abstract
ABSTRACT It’s been more than two years and the world is still struggling with the COVID-19 pandemic, which has tested the health and education system of almost every country and has resulted in the worst crisis ever. Children and youths all over the world have suffered the most due to partial and or complete closure of schools and will remember this dramatic experience for the rest of their lives. The present review briefs some of the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the education system and children and youths worldwide. The literature was searched from governmental, non-governmental agencies including UNICEF, UN, UNESCO, WHO, UNFPA, OECD, CARE, ITU, World Economic Forum, and many English peer-reviewed journals, using PubMed/MEDLINE, SCOPUS, Web of Science, Science Direct databases. Literature from the COVID-19 pandemic onset till May 2022 about the impact of school closure on children and adolescents was searched. Present review observed that COVID-19 pandemic-related school closure has resulted in the loss of education for many students worldwide. They have lost a safe environment, the support of peers and teachers, and a source of nutrition. Though COVID-19 has many negative impacts on education, it has also opened innovative ways of teaching that will help in developing a better and student-friendly curriculum. School closure has not only disrupted the education of children and adolescents, but has also pushed them into poverty, malnutrition, mental illness, child marriages, teenage pregnancies, and sexual, physical, and emotional violence, which needs urgent attention.
摘要两年多过去了,全球仍在与新冠肺炎疫情作斗争,这场疫情几乎考验了每个国家的卫生和教育系统,并导致了有史以来最严重的危机。由于学校部分和/或完全关闭,世界各地的儿童和青年遭受的痛苦最大,他们将在余生中记住这一戏剧性的经历。本综述简要介绍了新冠肺炎疫情对世界各地教育系统和儿童和青年的一些影响。使用PubMed/MEDLINE、SCOPUS、Web of Science、Science Direct数据库,从包括联合国儿童基金会、联合国教科文组织、世界卫生组织、联合国人口基金、经合组织、援外社、国际电联、世界经济论坛和许多英文同行评议期刊在内的政府和非政府机构检索文献。检索了从新冠肺炎大流行开始到2022年5月关于学校关闭对儿童和青少年影响的文献。目前的审查观察到,新冠肺炎流行病相关的学校关闭已导致世界各地许多学生失去教育。他们失去了一个安全的环境、同伴和老师的支持以及营养来源。尽管新冠肺炎对教育产生了许多负面影响,但它也开辟了创新的教学方式,有助于开发更好的、对学生友好的课程。学校关闭不仅扰乱了儿童和青少年的教育,还使他们陷入贫困、营养不良、精神疾病、童婚、少女怀孕以及性暴力、身体暴力和情感暴力,这些都需要紧急关注。
期刊介绍:
Child Care in Practice is a quarterly, peer-reviewed journal that provides an international forum for professionals working in all disciplines in the provision of children’s services, including social work, social care, health care, medicine, psychology, education, the police and probationary services, and solicitors and barristers working in the family law and youth justice sectors. The strategic aims and objectives of the journal are: • To develop the knowledge base of practitioners, managers and other professionals responsible for the delivery of professional child care services. The journal seeks to contribute to the achievement of quality services and the promotion of the highest standards. • To achieve an equity of input from all disciplines working with children. The multi-disciplinary nature of the journal reflects that the key to many successful outcomes in the child care field lies in the close co-operation between different disciplines. • To raise awareness of often-neglected issues such as marginalization of ethnic minorities and problems consequent upon poverty and disability. • To keep abreast of and continue to influence local and international child care practice in response to emerging policy. • To include the views of those who are in receipt of multi-disciplinary child care services. • To welcome submissions on promising practice developments and the findings from new research to highlight the breadth of the work of the journal’s work.
