The features of the educational process in the Kherson region are discussed in the report of Suspilne.

According to the head of the city department of education, Nataliia Zhurzhenko, 22,000 students study remotely in the Kherson community.

«This is not the first year we have been online, unfortunately, so these mechanisms have already been worked out, each institution has a platform on which the educational process is conducted. Each teacher formed remote classes for his subject. In principle, this year we put little effort into solving organizational issues. This year, I turned to my fellow managers and asked them to record video lessons and classes for children, because this year we are planning to turn off the lights, especially in the winter,» said Zhurzhenko.
