PBS Distance Learning Support Fall/Spring 2020-2021

To help families and educators facing education disruptions due to the pandemic, PBS is offering distance learning through multicast services: the PBS KIDS Channel airing content for younger children; and the WORLD Channel airing content for middle- and high school-age children. PBS is developing curriculum-driven resources, including printable PBS KIDS Learn at Home packages, Spanish-language materials, comprehensive teacher planning kits, and family and educator engagement resources. PBS and GBH are creating learn-at-home resources supporting WORLD Channel offerings on PBS LearningMedia.
