Thematic Research Report

Re-establishing Assessment, Records and Learner Progression after System Disruption

A global quality-improvement study of evidentiary continuity, fair decisions and recovery of learner entitlements

Institutional action on executive summary should be tested against the burden falls most heavily on people whose records were already incomplete or whose circumstances make formal proof difficult. The evidence must therefore clarify how when education systems are severely disrupted, the loss is not confined to buildings, teaching time or enrolment. The evidentiary links that connect a learner to prior participation, demonstrated learning, a recognised record and the next educational opportunity can also be broken. Reopening without repairing those links exposes learners to misplacement, repetition, denial of admission, invalid assessment and certificates that cannot be trusted.

Restoring Education Services through Phased Institutional Recovery

A global quality-improvement study of readiness, sequencing, equitable restoration and durable institutional capability

Institutional recovery should be organised around the restoration of educational functions rather than a single declaration that a system has reopened. Learner access, teacher presence, curriculum, materials, assessment, records, safety, accessibility and support recover at different rates and depend upon one another. A phased approach makes these dependencies and remaining limitations visible.
