The Teachers
Charged with shaping the minds of our children, what did teachers witness happen to their pupils during lockdown?
A group of teachers from the North East of Scotland discuss what they witnessed during the lockdown of 2020. When schools were shut and learning was done at home and online, what was the impact on pupils?
Coming from a variety of teaching backgrounds, and experiences, they each have unique insights into how a year of lockdown and remote teaching affected pupils. They discuss how teachers were the point of normality for pupils in key worker hub schools. They saw first hand the impact on pupils mental wellbeing and educational attainment. And for the first time, saw into the homes of children who were struggling.
Open, honest, by turns funny and heart breaking, this gives a universal insight into how teachers across the country cared for their pupils during the global pandemic and how it changed the landscape of learning forever.
