Yes.Is it wrong this pic made me fancy him slightly?
The problem we have is that we didn't have the same number of testing a few eeks ago let alone at the peak so we can't see it as a reassurance. It could have come right down but we can't see that.If you compare previous Tuesdays it's gone down. But the amount of new cases still scares me.
You cant repeat the year. In some places, you can start reception late or start school when you're 5 but in year 1. I wouldn't worry too much. Every child in your child's reception class would have missed the reception year. Just do some reading with him, practice pencil control with the dotted sheets and writing out numbers and he will be fine. Reception is mainly learning through play. Education is a long game and kids develop at different paces no matter when they are born.Does anyone know if its possible for a child to repeat their reception year? My son is current Reception but not 5 until August. I feel he really needs to do the year again or he will be really behind.
That's very true my son is the youngest in his class and the most academically gifted according to his teacher .But he has a love for all things number and letter related so that helps..You cant repeat the year.

Just do some reading and writing practice and numbers and he'll be fine. Education is a long game and kids develop at different paces no matter when they are born.
OK thanks. Hes actually an intelligent child but being so much younger than the rest of his yeargroup has worried meYou cant repeat the year.

Yeah ive really tried to get him to do some school stuff at home and he has to an extent but not as much as I'd have liked. I just got to the point where I dont want a fight with him as he's so headstrong..im also 36 weeks pregnant, on my own and suffering badly from anemia so its kinda hard some days. Makes me feel really guilty that I'm not doing enough for him.They’ve said readings the most important thing any child could do right now & it’s proberly the easiest thing to learn you child so we’ve been mainly focusing on reading and then 15 mins writing 15 mins maths 15 mins p.e and so on but we don’t do it everyday sometimes it’s only 3 times a week! No one should feel bad we’re all in the same boat as long as we make memories and keep them happy that’s what they’ll remember most
I think In the next 3 weeks is when we’ll see a spike in everything.. after bank holiday weekend & the lockdown been eased the way it’s set to tommorow the idiots will be out in force flocking to every park and beach
I know it’s easier said than done, but please try not to be too hard on yourself. He sounds like he is loved, cared for and looked afterOK thanks. Hes actually an intelligent child but being so much younger than the rest of his yeargroup has worried me

My school have requested that we let them know by Thursday if our child will be going inNot really just that the date is movable based on the suppression of the virus.
Which is what the government have said really, if numbers jump so does the date.
Schools 100% need to know numbers and I think thier will be a we need to know by this date if your child is coming letter out soon.
My god that's to soon to make an informed choice. Unless your school can give you thier plan for reopening you can't decide how you feel!My school have requested that we let them know by Thursday if our child will be going in
My son is 11mths younger than some of his classmates and there's been no problem.I wouldn't worry too much about the home schooling the teacher has said just do what you can ,as they know the kids don't see home as a learning environment x. The website they use is called" Top Mark's "it follows the curriculum and there's lots of fun learning games on that from yr 1 right up.He might find something on there he likes..OK thanks.

If you take emotions out of it the basic facts are we can't see everyone we normally see or the R number will be through the roof.So we can't go visiting friends and family under lockdown.
But under the new rules, from midnight tonight, you can visit a total stranger's home, if you want to buy or rent it.
I spoke to my manager and friend who was previously a manager yesterday. Basically the councils are set to call nurseries and someone else, I can’t remember what they are called. During these phone calls they are discussing the guidelines and implementing what needs to be done to keep them everyone safe and complying with social distancing. They will also discuss changes that will happen to the nursery to comply with this, my nursery has come up with a new policy and procedure on what to do during this time. Overall from my understanding if staff/children who are extremely vulnerable or come from households with extremely vulnerable can only go in if stringent social distancing can be aheard to. And I believe this also depends on if a setting can open, if nurseries are unable to put things into place to keep children and staff safe but also social distance then how can they operate? My nursery is currently open for key workers with 3 members of staff and about 6 children per day and they’ve said their struggling with the social distancing, constant cleaning and explaining and supporting children with this so I honestly can’t see how this would work by adding another half of children. Children need to explore and connect with others and I can see this having such a negative impact on everyone. It makes you concerned if after something like this if early years can bounce back up! I love my job and the thought of it being nothing like how it was really breaks my heart
Did you read the early years guidance? It lists it all in there. As a key worker you will be allocated a group of children in your ratio and you alone are responsible for those children and stay together as a group, so that group eats together, sleeps together and goes in the garden together.
Frequent handwashing and nose wiping is encouraged more frequent cleaning of toys etc. They are saying where possible, be outside as much as possible which helps.
You can still give babies bottles and change their nappies and rock them to sleep. After nappy changes, you need to clean the whole area down which you should be doing anyway.
It's going to be a shock for some settings who don't clean frequently or properly
