Our campaign: Little Lockdowners: Can we close the critical skills gap in primary learners? brings insights from a primary years perspective with experts: Rachel Clarke, Dr. Ems Lord and Hugo Shephard, hosted by Simon Hunt.

We’ll be discussing:

- Has there been a significant shift in children’s mental health and wellbeing since the pandemic?
- What interventions can we use to overcome the challenges educators continue to face in supporting child development?
- Plus much, much more…
