  ABSTRACT: This study aimed to investigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Namibian education system, specifically focusing on the Oshana Education Region. Sixteen participants, who were purposefully selected from primary and secondary schools in the region, took part in in-depth face-to-face interviews. The study utilized an exploratory design, and the collected data was analyzed thematically. The findings revealed several key themes related to the impact of the pandemic on the education system, including the disruption of learning, educational inequalities, academic and occupational challenges, learning loss, teacher adaptation, infrastructure and resources, and assessment and evaluation practices. These findings provide valuable insights into the effects of the pandemic on the education system and highlight areas that require attention and improvement to ensure a resilient and inclusive educational environment.
