dc.description.abstract	The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly disrupted educational systems worldwide, with Kenya being no exception. School closures and the transition to remote learning have posed substantial challenges, particularly in regions with limited access to technology. This paper examines the impact of COVID-19 on education in Kenya, highlighting the risks of prolonged learning interruptions on children's academic and future labor market outcomes. It also discusses the Kenyan government's response, including distance learning initiatives and policy interventions aimed at mitigating learning loss. The analysis reveals disparities in access to remote learning and the necessity for targeted strategies to support the most affected students. Recommendations include expanding access to digital resources, enhancing teacher training, and implementing remedial programs to address educational inequities exacerbated by the pandemic.
