...I’ve never known mental health in children to be so poor as I’ve experienced in the last few months, it’s heartbreaking and difficult to know if any far reaching impacts ...and obviously it’s largely caused by parents struggling as well...it’s much easier obviously to be face to face as we are now with some years...than reaching out and communicating electronically...schools need to be back fully so desperately and I hope that happens in September...but only if parents are reassured of safeguarding and procedures, not threatened with dumb fines...life has been and is difficult enough financially for so many, fines achieve nothing...
