Inclusive Lockdown Science
Bearchell, Sarah
Primary Science, n163 p5-7 Jun 2020
Since the schools in the United Kingdom (UK) closed to most pupils in March 2020 to try to stop the spread of COVID-19, the internet has delivered a flood of materials for 'home-schooling'. Finding the most appropriate resources has been overwhelming for teachers and parents alike. The majority of pupils in the UK (71.3-85.1%, depending on region) do not have special needs, so it is not surprising that most of the activities have been developed for them. But what about the 1.7 million pupils across England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland who do have special educational needs and disability (SEND)? What resources are out there for them? In this article, the author considers how children with SEND can be supported with learning science at home and shows some of what goes into the creation of 'home-schooling' materials.
