Below ground, 25 kilometers from the border with Russia, Ukrainian children in Kharkiv
00:07
are starting a new school year in a classroom. It`s the second largest city in Ukraine, using
00:14
space in its metro stations to provide its young people with an education in a protected
00:19
space.
00:20
After two years of online learning, it`s very nice when you come and see with your own eyes
00:31
and hear not through the speakers, but through the ears. It`s easier to learn.
00:40
The underground school caters for 400 students. The ones in the 11th grade are here preparing
00:46
for a multi-subject university entrance test.
00:49
Parents are happy that their children can learn the main subjects offline and prepare
00:54
for the multi-subject test. It`s important for parents and for children, because communication
00:59
in our times, in this situation, is very important for children. Socialization is necessary,
01:05
because during the COVID-19 and during the war, children got used to working in a group,
01:12
in a team.
01:13
Many schools in Ukraine have been bombed by Russia. In Kharkiv, there are just over 120
01:18
remaining in good condition. But due to constant bombing in the region, the city decided to
01:23
play it safe and installed dozens of classrooms in at least five metro stations, allowing
01:28
the children to return to school, even in times of war.
