Description

Lessons from Lockdown explores the impact of COVID-19 on our schooling systems, on the young people and families they serve, and on all who work in – and with – our schools. It asks what the long-term ramifications of the pandemic might be for the pedagogy and purpose of formal education. Drawing on the voices of more than a hundred pupils, parents, and professionals, it reveals how teachers and learners are adapting practices in areas such as curriculum modelling, parental engagement, assessment and evaluation, and blended and online learning.

In this timely new book, Tony Breslin draws on his experience as a teacher, researcher, examiner, school governor, and policy influencer to assess what the educational legacy of COVID-19 could be and the potential it offers for reframing how we ‘do’ schooling.

Whatever your place in this landscape, Lessons from Lockdown is a must-read for all concerned about the shape and purpose of schooling systems in mature economies – schooling systems and economies set on recovering from the kind of ‘system shock’ that the pandemic has delivered.
