Local Success Stories from GEG
Thank you for all being so amazing despite all the difficulties you face. We see that some schools are back in person, some now have a hybrid timetable and others have returned to full-time remote teaching due to local or national lockdowns. The work you are doing is really helping teachers all over the world to be better prepared to support their students during the continual changes they are facing. Please keep up the good work!
