As children start reception this term, for some, their first experience of schools, some children arrive in buggies wearing nappies. The BBC reports that according to some educational leaders the explanation is 'Children who spent their early years in lockdowns are starting school with "poor social and developmental skills" caused by screen time and isolation'. This is a report co-authored by Prof Clegg and produced by the Centre for Young Lives and Child of the North think tank.
As a governor, this has come up in our meetings this term. Has this happened at your school ? or you know a school where this is an issue? What has your school (or a school that you know) tackled this?
