a quarter of secondary school children in developing countries were leaving school with basic skills now we face a generational note get us through fee that would waste untold human potential and then mind decades of progress and exacerbate entrenched inequalities. the outbreak has affected nearly $1600000000.00 students across more than $190.00 countries at least $40000000.00 children have missed their preschool year because of cope with 19 restrictions more than $250000000.00 children were out of school before the pandemic now the u.n. is warning nearly 24000000 more could drop out all lose access to education the u.n. says before reopening schools it's important to control local transmission supply adequate funding and reach worse off students are short of lady is a senior fellow at. a think policy think tank based in islamabad he explains the

long term impact of school closures. there's a lot of focus on school re openings a lot of countries have tried to reopen schools some with some success others you know have had to go back to shutting them down there is an anticipation here in pakistan that september 15th is probably the outer limit of how long government can sort of hold on the for private schools especially low cost private schools in particular are forced to open because many of them are going to go bankrupt the long term implications of the learning loss the long term implications of the policy momentum that has been lost in a country like pakistan where the estimates are that still over 20000000 kids are out of school kids that should be in school according to the constitution and according to any metric or measure of sort of human decency and yet the fact that

schools have been closed as long as they have the number of bankruptcies in the low cost private school sector the learning loss impact especially on kids that are of a younger age all of those things combined with the exacerbated sentiment and awareness that people have after that that the digital divide is no longer some conceptual realm it's actually deeply and immeasurably effects the potential learning and cognitive development of young people in a country like pakistan in the whole south asia region cross africa and i would say this extends even to developed countries but obviously in those countries there's much more money available to throw at the problem. oriel giant british petroleum is reporting a record $16800000000.00 net loss in the 2nd quarter as a result of the pandemics economic fallout the company has cut its dividends by half the pirs already announced it's cutting 10000 jobs 2000 of which are in the

u.k. along with major losses the company has announced new plans to increase investment in low carbon energy. this year is economics editor abbott alley joins us now from london so abbott i guess it's not exactly a surprise the losses that b.p. are experiencing given that many of us still stuck at home. you're right sadly we're not flying we're not driving and we're not making much these days and that's been reflected in the prescribed routes last season certainly yes not been profits are been reported across many industries companies are reporting going in that have been beating expectations and that's the reason why are we seeing what the stock market's rise but that's still down by a 3rd from where there should be and that's been reflected in job losses and as you know as you suggest said that cutting 10000 jobs in the united states in the shale in or gas industry or a system to that more 1000000 jobs have been lost there and that's been reflected

in the economic numbers that we've been seeing over the last few last few weeks from the united states and europe where the economies are short by about 10 percentage points now why is he is to come because the banks are setting aside billions of dollars because they expect businesses and consumers to default on loans in the coming few months and if we look at the global economy it's been predicted that that will contract by 4 percent or $3.00 trillion dollars that's equivalent of the combined economies of the story here and canada put together. we're also hearing about carriers like ryan they're seeing they're taking a hit on passenger numbers aren't they what does this tell us about the expectations of economic recovery going forward. so this is rather interesting though as the riaa is your most profitable airline and has been for many years now it's an easy jet to come out with numbers today which suggest that they are are

flying with juiced schedules so their headline numbers which suggest that that's a passenger numbers you have fallen 70 percent give us an indication as to what was happening last year compared to this year so with their flight and reduced schedule so that 40 percent of flights and those flights are pretty strong which is not a bad thing to enjoy in this particular pandemic because consumer confidence is down now the airline industry really is a barometer for the economy and the kind of recovery we can expect now british airways is saying that we won't get back to. passenger numbers before 2023 which means that there's no 3 shaped recovery and we are expecting a u. shaped recovery which that jest a depression and a depression means that we are looking for a recovery sometime in the middle of this decade and maybe beyond that. but you

always break it down and make it easy for everyone to understand our expert our genius in all things economics and business abdalla there thanks for that. still ahead on al-jazeera will be live in north carolina where tropical storm has left hundreds of thousands without power the president of bellows faces mounting opposition as he tries for a 6th term in office. same torrential downpours recently around the korean peninsula to the north east of china this band of cloud moving across the sea has been producing some torrential downpours flooding rains in north korea 134 millimeters of rain into the eastern side of china to 32 millimeters of rain i'm afraid there is more where that came from because we now have what remains of typhoon typhoon had to pick making its way
