So many SEND needs, SEMH needs, children with ACEs, families without food in the house. We are trying our best every day to give but it feels like a tidal wave of challenge without external support.
Itโs worth a reflection that two years ago we began the first lockdown and now there is external pressure to pretend the pandemic didnโt existโฆeven though it is still here now. Finding the balance between expectation and empathy has been the biggest challenge lately for me.
