Schools must never close again in future lockdowns, the new Education Secretary Nadhim Zahawi was told yesterday.
Dame Rachel de Souza warned Mr Zahawi: ‘The harms done of losing education are immense.’
England’s Children’s Commissioner told how her Big Ask survey of youngsters’ views found that ‘children like school’ and ‘realised how sitting in front of the computer is no proxy for being with a teacher’.
