The Education Endowment Fund - The impact of the lockdown on learning for the most disadvantaged pupils
All Phases - Senior leaders/Heads of Department/SENDCOs
The Education Endowment Fund has published evidence about the impact of the lockdown on learning for the most disadvantaged pupils.
Key findings and implications include:
- School closures are likely to reverse progress made to close the gap in the last decade since 2011.
- Supporting effective remote learning will mitigate the extent to which the gap widens.
- Sustained support will be needed to help disadvantaged pupils catch up.
