The project target 7 schools in 7 communities in Idleb (Salqin, Dana, Qourqeena), these schools were supported under SCHF project (12682) in the period between 12-6-2019 to 11-6-2020, and the two proposed phases are:
1-During COVID-19: although there are no confirmed cases in NW Syria, it is expected that this phase will last until September 2020, during this period we propose the provision of remedial classes and as schools are closed it is a better time for conduct some maintenance and rehab:
-Provision of remedial classes to children who couldn’t attend and/or finalize the last semester properly because of the last displacement from Dec19 to the end of Feb20, and the closure of schools starting from the mid of March20,  children might be are at risk of dropping out or have poor education score according to their level of education, the proposed targeted children is 4578 (2223 B, 2355 G), GAN will provide PSS and SEL activities to children through online system and communications using WhatsApp groups if the schools still closed or physically if it is opend, and online training about Google services (YouTube, Forms, Sheets, Docs, Slides, Gmail, Drive, Classrooms) will be provided to teachers to help them deal with distance learning modality, as some other required tools for schools like(mics, tripod for mobiles, internet packages..etc), children will be provided with monthly internet packages, the 9th and 12th grade exams will be supported that will take place in July 20 (through provision of needed human resources and running cost for schools).
During the displacement period, 5 out of 7 targeted schools were occupied by IDPs, and this affected the furniture of schools in general, so light maintenance and rehabilitation will be provided, the scope of rehab will include the classrooms (windows and doors) as WASH facilities and ensure that all are adapted to receive children with disabilities, in addition, to repair school furniture like (students’ desks, Cupboard, teachers’ tables, and whiteboards), these rehab activities will improve and increase the safe access to schools and ensure children are receiving education in a safe and protected environment, as parents might not send their children to schools due to the inappropriate school condition. Rehabilitating schools will be as preparedness for after COVID-19 phase and make sure that school absorption capacity is increased by activating 6 classrooms in 2 schools also.
