How teachers are handling the return to school

Available for over a year

Frazzled parents Elisha Sessions (BBC Academy) and Deborah James (You, Me and the Big C) hear from brilliant teachers all over the UK about their professional view of lockdown. They share their practical tips and insights from their experiences teaching children during this period. Frankie and Natalie tell Eli and Debs what the kids they teach make of Corona virus. Head teacher Dave is still struggling with the decision to reopen the school, while Naveed in Bradford has been innovating by creating a local radio station for children who are harder to reach. Eli speaks to Chloe, who has calming advice for parents and can’t wait to get back in the staff room. Debs speaks to Ryan who has been teaching since the outbreak. He is still getting to grips with smaller class sizes and social distancing measures. You can find daily lessons for every school age group on bbc.co.uk/bitesize or search ‘Bitesize’ in iPlayer.
