Now that the IDF has approved the return of most residents of the Gaza Perimeter to return home, children are set to resume school in most areas, including the city of Sderot, from March onward.
The Education Ministry has announced a number of hotlines to help the children, parents, and staff, who have spent months away from home after being evacuated when the war started.
The hotlines include people providing advice on educational issues and also emotional support after the experience of the war and the evacuation.
