<p>Before the pandemic, children with disabilities were already among the most marginalised.
Emerging evidence suggests the impact of COVID-19 on their education will be significant
in ODA eligible countries. Many children with disabilities are excluded from remote
learning and as they lack assisted learning devices at home, accessible content and
one-to-one support.</p><p>That is why the UK’s Ed Tech Hub is working to ensure distance
education is inclusive for all learners, including those with disabilities. Through
our flagship Girls’ Education Challenge Fund and the Inclusive Education Initiative,
we are supporting children with disabilities to access quality education and building
the evidence base on how to do this most effectively. And we will lend our full weight
to global efforts, including the UNICEF-led campaign to ensure <em>all </em>children
can return to school when it is safe to do so, and children with disabilities are
not left behind.</p>
