A visiting fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, John Bailey, joins Education Next Editor-in-chief Marty West to discuss Bailey’s new study, which details how students and teachers can plan to return to physical school buildings in the 2020-21 academic year amid the Covid-19 pandemic. “It’s going to be a lot of creative problem-solving to tackle this,” Bailey says.

The report was developed with the help of “an all-star group” of 19 former education officials.

“A Blueprint for Back to School,” by Bailey and Frederick Hess, is available now.
