Online Education in the Time of the Coronavirus
How to ensure education without school attendance?
The COVID-19 pandemic shut down schools overnight. It is still not clear how long the measures will last; there is also no single guide that would help schools with a quick transition to the new form of education. And yet, considering the current measures, this is vital. Which tools can directors and teachers use to ensure continuity of education and move lessons from classrooms to homes?
Directors and teachers are now facing an enormous challenge of ensuring education in the times of the coronavirus. Primary and secondary schools do not have much experience with distance learning, though, and the same goes for online lessons, the only possible solution for the current situation.
Deloitte has therefore focused on solving the current education issue and offers assistance to directors of primary and secondary schools in optimising education and its transition into the online environment.
Deloitte advisory for primary and secondary schools offers assistance in the following three areas:
- Introducing measures to ensure online education
- Converting the learning content into online from
- Consulting technical requisites of online education
- Assistance with the use and optimisation of established learning systems and lesson organisation platforms in order to distribute and gather online materials and organise online lectures
- Using end-to-end solutions by Google or Microsoft and their integration into learning systems

Well-rounded education in the time of the coronavirus
The current situation presents an especially large challenge for schools, since they have to set up a stable, well-rounded and viable (at least for a couple of months) system of online education – all of that very quickly and quite at the twelfth hour. Everything that took place in the form of a direct contact until now – from the teaching itself, oral exams and tests to practical demonstrations – will now have to be digitalised, not to mention all the processes that are behind the teaching itself. Directors are now facing the important question of how to ensure this transformation. We also cannot forget that a school is not “just” a building or an institution – most of all, it is an all-embracing system of education, administration and governance.
