I have a 12 year old DD who needs a lot of learning support and im really struggling. Im a key worker so still at work and with no one else to support us. I'm failing so dd is getting stressed with it all.

Tell me im not alone.

You are not alone.
Education is important but mental health is more so.
Be kind to yourselves, don't try to do everything. Keep reading, some writing and basic maths ticking over if you can, in small manageable chunks, but lower your expectations. Try to have some downtime together, cooking, playing cards, watching a series.

I mean this in a kind way, your not home schooling that’s completely different. I suggest contacting the school and explaining what is happening. They will have lots of staff working and they will be able to advise you and your daughter about what to concentrate on or provide alternative work.
