The government has allocated more than €250,000 for summer catch-up classes to help pupils whose education was affected by COVID-19.
The investment was announced by Education Minister Justyne Caruana and the parliamentary secretary for EU funds, Stefan Zrinzo Azzopardi, who said that the programme will be co-financed by European funds.
Lessons will be provided to primary and secondary students who will be able to revise the work done in the scholastic year.
