ABSTRACT
The private educational institutions in the Delhi-NCR region have been hit particularly hard by the COVID-19 pandemic, which has affected many parts of their operations and the people who have a stake in them. In light of the complex ways in which these institutions have responded to the pandemic, this research delves into their methods of adjustment. The sudden shift to online education has been one of the most noticeable effects of the pandemic, upending the conventional school year and forcing institutions to adjust their schedules accordingly. Despite this change, there have been obstacles. As a result of rising costs for technological infrastructure and falling income from tuition and other sources, many institutions are struggling to make ends meet. Also impacted are faculty and staff members; some have had to adapt their teaching styles to fit online platforms, while others have faced layoffs or reduced salaries. Isolation and future uncertainty have contributed to students' elevated stress and anxiety levels, which the pandemic has further heightened. They have looked into new ways of teaching and technology to improve online learning experiences and have put measures in place to help students' mental health. The importance of continuous support and adaptation in dealing with the changing pandemic challenges is emphasised by this study.
