Equally alarming is the widespread phenomenon of ‘forgetting’ by students of learning from the previous class – this is regression in their curricular learning'.  'This study, undertaken in January 2021, reveals the extent and nature of the ‘forgetting/ regression’ kind of learning loss (i.e. what was learnt earlier but has now been lost)  among children in public schools across primary classes because of school closure  during the COVID-19 pandemic'.
