I mean more for those children who are not currently in school. My eldest is in y7 and he/I have had a call from his tutor to check in with everything and make sure he's happy he can access the work, they've set up a Google classroom which is focused on mental health and wellbeing, they have an app where they want your child at least once a week to go on and just rate how they're feeling from a range of smiley/sad faces (I assume if it was very sad most of the time they would call) with the option of explaining why they chose the smiley.
My younger children's primary school seems to be doing nothing though. No contact from teacher except generalised comments or work feedback on teams (which my youngest can barely access anyway as it's impossible to differentiate work for his dyslexia).
Just wondering what any other schools have put in place for children who may be struggling a bit with their emotions?
(And before anyone jumps on, yes I am their parent, I look after them perfectly well but sometimes help, reassurance or even a chat is better coming from a teacher or such like)
