Ofsted's annual report, published today, has found that 'nearly all children' were impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic and the resulting disruption to education
It said that there were a 'disappointingly small' number of achievements for many pupils during the year, despite the tremendous efforts made by teachers, parents, pupils and social workers
It warns that the loss of education and routine had 'led to physical and mental health problems. Loneliness, boredom and misery became endemic among the young' as children 'struggled with a hokey-cokey education: in the classroom, at home, separated in bubbles, isolating at home'
Ofsted will be using its inspections this term to look in greater depth at the patterns of absence since September
