Abstract:
The spread of infection with the SARS-CoV-2 virus at the beginning of 2020 led the governments of the
European states to take drastic measures to limit mobility by instituting quarantine and isolation measures, and
in state institutions, including educational ones, physical presence was excluded, including in Romania.
The continuation of the activities, implicitly the didactic ones, had to be carried out through online
activities, a situation in which School Effectiveness becomes a difficult concept to measure, because it is related
to different criteria, defined according to the specifics of each school unit, the results of the students and the
added value by the school institution. The uncertainty in which each school organization evolved did not only
have a negative impact on the quality of the educational act, but had much more complex implications and,
certainly, echoes in the medium and long term.
At the moment, over the echo of the pandemic crisis, the energy crisis and the threat of an imminent
economic crisis overlap. The present work aims to highlight the importance of quality assurance in European
(and implicitly Romanian) pre-university education, in crisis situations.
