THE PANDEMIC AND EDUCATIONAL SUCCESS: EXPERTS SHARE THEIR THOUGHTS

Published on May 5, 2020

The COVID-19 pandemic and the measures taken to counter it will undeniably affect young people’s school perseverance. In order to fuel reflection on the aspects of educational success that could be jeopardized by the crisis, Réseau réussite Montréal is holding a series of webinars on the determinants of school perseverance in view of the pandemic.

We are asking experts to share their thoughts about various aspects of educational success during the pandemic.

WEBINAR 3: THE FIRST TRANSITION TO SCHOOL DURING A PANDEMIC

DATE: TUESDAY, JUNE 2, 10 A.M. (DURATION: 1 HOUR 30 MIN.)

During this period of crisis, the back-to-school period in Montreal will be a strange time for everyone, but especially for children who are starting school. The transition to school is a key moment in their relationship with the school environment, one that affects every other transition during their schooling. Horizon 0-5’s Chantier montréalais Transition vers l’école discusses how the transition will be different this year, the issues surrounding this very particular back-to-school period, and actions to support children and their families.
