On Monday, millions of children in the Philippines returned to school as the academic year began, with many taking their seats in classrooms for the first time since the Covid-19 pandemic hit.
The Philippines is one of the last countries in the world to resume full-time, in-person lessons — sparking warnings that the prolonged closure of classrooms had worsened the education crisis in the country.
Children in masks and uniforms lined up for a temperature check and a squirt of hand sanitiser at the Pedro Guevara Elementary School in Manila, which had shut classrooms since March 2020.
