Children in England could face the worst exam results in decades and a lifetime of lower earnings due to failures in addressing the academic and social effects of Covid school closures. The Nuffield Foundation-funded study predicts a decline in GCSE results until 2030, with less than 40% achieving good grades in key subjects.
The research suggests implementing low-cost strategies like hiring undergraduates as tutors and restructuring the school year to address the negative impact of the pandemic on students' academic performance. It emphasizes the importance of investing in education to prevent long-term consequences on future generations.
