, arguing that learning online is possibly preferable. Not surprisingly, there are many who disagree. While there are reasons why learning online might be feasible, I believe there can be no substitute for the face-to-face contact afforded by school-based learning. Online learning offers an efficient and high-tech solution to education. Internet speeds have increased, and online video conferencing platforms now provide improved functionality.

 I believe it is essential for
children
 to continue their education in physical school environments. Classroom learning and interactions with teachers provide students with varied and complex opportunities for development. Student-centred learning is fostered as teachers can respond spontaneously to the individual needs of their students. Vital communication and negotiation skills can be developed during both classroom learning and break-time interactions. Teachers
also
 receive immediate feedback on student progress, based on both verbal and non-verbal cues.

 technology offers valuable support to the learning process, school-based learning offers so much more in terms of the development of social skills and the provision of immediate feedback loops within the learning process.
As a result
, learning in schools remains an important and irreplaceable feature of education.
