Step forward, all those carers who have gone the extra mile to ensure that children could keep in touch with their families and friends (virtually or otherwise). Bravo to all who have worked tirelessly and creatively to keep children entertained during the long hours of lockdown. Thank you to the many who have turned their talents to home education, working closely with social workers and headteachers of virtual schools to make sure that children did not miss too much of their learning. Kudos to those carers who, in pre-pandemic times, may have described themselves as ‘digitally challenged’ but have since embraced technology to empower and support children.
