The President of the RCPCH added:

“Schools are vital to the wellbeing of children and young people, providing a range of services from vaccinations to mental health support.

Schools are also where at-risk children are looked out for and supported. Right now, we don’t know how some of the most vulnerable children in our society are faring because they are outside of the safety net that school provides.

And, of course, schools are also where our children run around, play and laugh and argue with each other. They need to return to that sort of a healthy normality as soon as possible.”

Why did this get very little publicity this week? Instead we get stupid initiatives about 1:1 tutoring when our school system can't even provide a unified approach to education for everyone.
The kids across the road have registration at 8.45am, online classes from 9-3 and even homework!
Mine have a couple of hours of work set but don't get feedback on the work.
Let's forget the gimmicks and go back to basics.
