I have realized that edubuntu is no longer available for recent Ubuntus, and that the projects has been somehow replaced by ubuntued. Ubuntued seems to provide the following bundle of packages (in form of meta-packages):

  • ubuntued-meta-preschool
  • ubuntued-meta-primary
  • ubuntued-meta-secondary
  • ubuntued-meta-tertiary

As ubuntued seems to be based on Ubuntu, I assume to find and install these packages on my Ubuntu 20.04 all I need to do, instead of installing ex-novo ubuntued, is to add their repositories. But which are those?

Alternatively, are there available "just" some curated meta-packages for the "standard" Ubuntu?

You still can get Educational packages on any release of Ubuntu. They are named:

  • Package astro-education

    Educational astronomy applications

  • Package ezgo-education

    Debian EzGo Education

  • Package games-education

    Debian's educational games

  • Package junior-education

    Debian Jr. education applications

  • Package kdeedu

    educational applications from the official KDE release

If you want to get some new taste of Ubuntu in education, then check Linux L-i-f-e (Linux for Education based on Ubuntu MATE).

Well, this answer can be changed now: Edubuntu is back!

Furthermore, there are metapackages for each age level:

  • Package ubuntu-edu-preschool

Preschool age level

  • Package ubuntu-edu-primary

Primary/Elementary age level

  • Package ubuntu-edu-secondary

Secondary/Middle/High School age level

  • Package ubuntu-edu-tertiary

Tertiary/College/University age level

I hope this helps!
