The lives of people have changed dramatically as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic worldwide, particularly children and adolescents. This study investigates the influence of the COVID-19 pandemic on the education and learning of children and adolescents based on social cognitive theory in the unique context of east Jerusalem. The survey is based on a developed and validated questionnaire for measuring health-related quality of life (KIDSCREEN), and school and learning of children and adolescents in east Jerusalem were measured twice before and during the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown procedures. Multiple regression analysis, one-way ANOVA tests, an independent sample t-test, and a paired sample t-test were used in the empirical testing. The results of this study indicate that the students in east Jerusalem had worse school and learning conditions during the COVID-19 pandemic than before. The environment and personal factors significantly affected the school and learning of children and adolescents in east Jerusalem during the COVID-19 pandemic. The findings of this study shed new light and provide important evidence on children and adolescents in east Jerusalem as an extremely politically unstable context during a crucial period of risk behavior, particularly when social and educational support is lacking.
