Teachers’ resilience key to transformation of education

Regardless of the level of severity of learning loss their students experienced during the emergency remote teaching, almost all the surveyed teachers reported willingness and readiness to provide extra tutorial and remedial sessions to those students who suffered from learning loss.

In support of the United Nations secretary-general’s Transforming Education Summit (TES) scheduled for Sept. 19, the UNESCO International Commission on the Futures of Education issued a call for education to serve our shared needs and common futures in new ways.  

The commission released a statement proposing that forging a new social contract for education offered both the vision and process for transforming education.

Specifically, the statement lists five strategic direction changes, to: 1) make educational systems places of equal opportunity and shared abundance by advancing inclusion through changes to educational cultures and practices that reduce competition and selection, 2) foster curricula focused more on connections than categories by supporting interdisciplinary, intercultural and ecological approaches in and outside formal education, 3) support teachers to create transformative education by investing in teaching that builds cooperation and solidarity, 4) ensure that the digital connects us to each other and to the world by building open-access content, public platforms and committing to democratic, participatory governance and 5) strengthen education as a global common good by ensuring more equitable cooperation within and across countries.
