'Tell us your experiences of COVID-19 and hopes for the future'

The survey – Experiences of Covid-19 in Primary and Early Years Education – has just six questions and the closing date is 7 August.

A Centre spokesperson said, 'We encourage you to answer the questions in as much depth as you have time for. Our main priority in collecting this information is to document real-life experiences of education during the crisis. We would like to know from professionals who are working with children (including through teaching at a distance) what life has really been like over the last few months, and your expectations and hopes for the future. We are very grateful for your participation.

'The survey is fully anonymous, but we will ask some basic information about your role and your school or early years setting, so we can understand how different parts of the sector are affected in different ways.'

A previous Centre survey into practitioners' lockdown experiences, carried out in May, provided important evidence for a written submission to the House of Commons Education Committee Inquiry into COVID-19.
