Regions with a lengthy summer break can create negative outcomes for learners; this problem is referred to as summer learning loss, summer learning gap, or summer slide. Summer learning loss is loss of academic knowledge and skill that accumulates over the break from school. When students return to school after the summer break, teachers need to re-teach previously taught material. The academic loss may result in achievement gaps that widen each year for students. Government-implemented interventions and voluntary summer programs have potential to limit summer learning loss, and hence decrease the achievement gap. Summer learning loss is a critical problem that has long-term consequences. However, there are solutions that can limit learning loss for students.
