March 16, as cases of Covid-19 multiply, thehe Federal Council decrees the closure of all schools. Faced with this “brutal and unexpected event, in a few days, the Department of Public Education (DIP) had to set up distance learning,” recalled Thursday its magistrate, Anne Emery-Torracinta. For two months, primary and Orientation Cycle students therefore followed theisonline school; secondary II youth stayed at home one more month. How did students, parents and teachers experience this period and what lessons can be learned from it? The DIP presented a report on Thursday “not exhaustive”.
