I've been thinking this from the start, what not just repeat the school year and start again in September.
So for example a current Y2 child would start Y2 again in September
They could spend the first few months going over what they've done before lockdown and then move on to the curriculum which was missed/learned during lockdown with minimal support.
Y11/13 would get to do their exams with full preparation, not relying on predicted grades.
Y2/6 would get to do their SATS (although the question of whether they mean fuck all is for another thread)
No issues with transition and missing our on preparation for that for FS1, Y2, Y6
Is there a downside I'm.not seeing?
