  • Asia Pacific Education
    Asia Pacific Education Learning Through Crises watch November 2020 Photo credit: Malvern College Chengdu Asia Pacific Contents Education Executive summary 1 Learning Through Crises Introduction 2 Learning never stops 2 Is COVID-19 a game-changer 5 Opportunities could arise 8 Conclusion 9 Executive summary The education sector has proven to be resilient in past downturns. The K-12 segment in Asia had faced the prospect of expatriate students withdrawing from international schools, but schools often replaced them with locals. When the economy recovered, the expatriate students also returned, leading to higher demand than before. Besides Asian culture valuing education, the demand in the private K-12 segment in Asia is driven by an expanding middle class, urbanisation, rising female labour participation rate and accommodative regulatory policies. The higher education segment often displays counter-cyclicality during economic uncertainties as individuals seek to better prepare themselves for changes in the labour market through re-skilling and up-skilling. This was evident in the US and China during the Global Financial Crisis. In the latest COVID-19 crisis, the K-12 segment in Asia is expected to display the same resilience. Travel restrictions and school closures disrupted classes during the early months of the pandemic, but online learning has complemented classroom work when schools progressively reopened. Demand from affluent local families for a place in international K- 12 schools remains robust as parents aim to provide their children with a head start via a western-style education. COVID-19 has also affected higher-education institutions which have sizeable foreign student cohorts. To make up for the potential enrolment shortfall, universities can leverage on local demand and on government policies to encourage continual education for working professionals or post- graduate courses.
