The psychosocial impact of the disaster also continues to be felt by children and communities. In a survey of over 200 teachers working in earthquake-affected schools, about 33 per cent reported that their students continued to express fear and anxiety.Results of school structural assessments led by the Department of Education and supported by the Cluster covering over 5,700 schools in 11 districts outside the Kathmandu Valley reveal that 67 per cent of classrooms have been designated unsafe. Over 7,000 school blocks need to be demolished and rebuilt. Access to WASH facilities is limited.
