This indicator measures the education system performance on distance learning. This has risen up the agenda during the COVID-19 crisis and the shift to more remote learning, often requiring digital tools to access. This may need to be complemented by an indicator on Internet access for households with children, as well as disaggregation of such an indicator by location and wealth. This indicator in contrast also provides implicitly a measure of the software or applications for connectivity, and should also ideally be combined with indicators on the quality of digital provision from education providers. The indicator is likely to require more development if used as it is a relatively new indicator globally.
