Bulgaria’s Ombudsman Diana Kovacheva told the National Asembly Committee on Education and Science that she had recommended that this country‘s Minister of Education provided all Bulgarian schools with child psychologists due to the consequences of the Covid pandemic. Currently, half of the schools in Bulgaria lack such specialists.
