Equality in education has been affected. The education system has been challenged in all parts of the world, but we must not forget that, from each challenge, an opportunity for improvement arises. Closing school is the most obvious implication of the pandemic. Rapidly ramp up online teaching and learning is the only way to determine how quality in education can be sustained. Many students and even teachers do not have an internet connectivity, a cellphone, a laptop or other things that is needed in online class, but others do. What we need to avoid, or minimize as much as possible, is for those differences in opportunities to expand and cause the crisis to have an even larger negative effect on poor student's learning.
