    think there was a drop post covid

    A drop in behaviour you mean?

    I heard a number of teachers say that children who went through lockdown, especially the youngest, appear to have social / behavioural issues. They haven’t learnt what acceptable social behaviour is.

      Yes, a drop in behaviour. I did originally think that they hadn’t learned acceptable behaviour or had forgotten, but it hasn’t got better, and I do feel like it’s coming from anxiety and stress a lot rather than hijinks like it used to be.

      I teach older kids (16-19), so I can’t speak for the really little ones, but I do have prior experience of taking homeschool kids (a lot of homeschool kids do college to prepare for university) and they never had this issue that I’ve seen recently.
