Abstract In order to reduc e the spread of COVID-19, most c ountries around the world have decided to temporarily close educational institutions. However, learning has not stopped but is now fully taking place online as schools and universities provide remot e schooling. Using existing literature and evidence from recent international data (Eurostat, PISA, ICILS, PIRLS, TALIS), this report attempts to gain a better understanding of how the COVID-19 crisis may affect students' learning. It looks at the different direct and indirect ways through which the virus, and the measures adopted to contain it , may impact children's ac hievement. `Conservative' estimates for a few selected EU c ountries consistently indicate that, on average, students will suffer a learning loss. It is also suggested that COVID-19 will not affec t students equally, will influenc e negatively both c ognitive and non- cognitive skills acquisition, and may have important long-term consequences in addition to the shortterm ones.
