Looks like hot girl summer will have to be postponed as schools make plans for the summer. Summer 2021 was something everyone was looking for considering summer 2020 was cancelled by the Covid 19 pandemic. It wasn’t only school but it was also schools as well so the children had to resort to schooling online which was the best option that could be provided.
Now this being sad Zoom classes did a lot of good but the question was did it do as much as school for kids were not in a school environment and they could not concentrate and put themselves in that position to be prepared to sit in front of a laptop for the same amount of time they would spend in school.
Well the schools have come up with a plan to make sure the kids get what they missed out when the schools were closed and the solution is to have a summer school scheme. Almost 1,000 schools across the country intend to run special summer programmes to help children make up for losses to learning and socialization as a result of the school closures, preliminary figures from the Department of Education indicate.
968 schools have expressed an interest in running 1,346 schemes across a range of Department of Education-funded summer programmes. It is expected that around 34,000 students will benefit. The department said the figures represent an increase of 161% on uptake compared to last year. But it said data on actual participation will only become known after the summer.
The programmes include schemes aimed at children with disabilities as well as children at greatest risk from educational disadvantage. There is a separate scheme for home-based provision for children with complex needs. However, the department said data on take-up of this programme will only become available in the autumn.
