Post-lockdown I mean. I teach primary (year 2) and the kids are so much more dependent on adults, less able to solve even the most minor disagreement, less resilient and haven’t learned a lot of the skills previous cohorts would have by now. I have one DS in year 7 and another 6th former DS. DS is no where near ready for secondary, undoubtedly caused by how disrupted his primary experience was. My other DS is still very much a daft teen in the way normally year 10s are and doesn’t take school seriously, fails to see the importance of getting the grades so he can get into his first choice uni, moans about teachers giving homework as if they’re doing it as a personal slight. For both of them, I feel they’re about 2 years behind developmentally because they have lost out on so many of the experiences and rites of passage that previous cohorts a few years back would have got. Is this something other parents/teachers are noticing or is it just my DC?
