Comment on Pupil behaviour 'getting worse' at schools in England, say teachers

BrightCandle@lemmy.world ⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

This is almost certainly Covid. We already know it damages the brain and attacks the executive as well as behavioural centres of the brain and children are out sick for twice as long from school directly due to sickness. We are also busy trying to force children with Long Covid, of which there are 68,000 in the UK now, into school and unfortunately that will make them very unwell. Most schools are having to use a lot of substitute teachers due to doubling of sickness and teachers are the second hardest hit profession with Long Covid (behind medical staff).

It will keep getting worse as more and more suffer from Long Covid impacts.
