<p>The El Niño phenomenon exacerbates regional climate patterns and extreme weather
events. Last month, excessive heat caused the temporary closure of some schools in
South Sudan. The UK is one of the largest donors to education in South Sudan: we engage
closely with the government, UNICEF, and education partners and will monitor the impact
of interruptions to education. Our Humanitarian Assistance and Resilience in South
Sudan programme has assisted approximately three million people by providing critical
life-saving support and helping people to better cope with shocks from conflict, drought
and flooding.</p>
