RE: Thoughts on schools for the upcoming year? #11
Graduated a month ago. Universities don't even know what to do, and everyone is moved to online classes. Politics are trying to push schools reopening, but without proper preparations.

Definitely see if online or homeschooling is an option, even if it's just for a semester.

That would be my primary concern too. I'm sure some are looking into virtual tutoring lessons for kids not in school. Provides structure of a school day, and is a different authority from their parents to keep them accountable for their school work. Downside being the cost
Good point with virtual tutorials, I wasn't aware of how they're structured.

I'd say It's safe to assume, that the education department will try and cater for every child's needs during remote sessions. Their effectiveness however, remains to be seen.

It's a bit of an unprecedented challenge. I'm sure there will be some students who don't get what they need. Fingers crossed that is the rare few, though.

Anytime! I hope it helps.
I don't know too much about it, but I'm sure there are tutors that have had to adapt due to the pandemic. Now is as good a time as any to look into it. The advantage of virtual tutoring is also that you aren't restricted by geography. Plus, you can probably record the tutoring sessions. 1) That way you can review how the tutor is interacting with your child, and 2) it would be good for studying to have a recording. Though, I imagine you'd have to discuss recording lessons with the tutor, though.

Best of luck - However you do it!

I certainly agree.

Given It hasn't already been Implemented on a large scale, It will be very difficult (If not Impossible) to determine Its effectiveness for every pupil.

I think no one has any clue what to do. We started online, than we started attending school, but were divided into smaller groups. I think everything now is just an experiment on us
