Community –re-establish sense of school community and links to the wider community – engage, listen, understand, grow together.

Metacognition – explicitly scaffold teaching to grow confidence as a learner – some children will have forgotten aspects of their learning and key skills that will need to be embedded again

Transparent Curriculum –clear pathway to engagement with education after lockdown – co-construct to show them how you are addressing the gaps.

Space – to be, to rediscover self-image, concept, esteem and confidence. – for some children, lockdown will have had an enormous impact on their mental health, social skills and emotional literacy
