The article goes about those important people who are working generally for us in the background. These people and their significant jobs and roles are rarely mentioned, though their services are important during the crisis.
They are working on the frontline, those are the care workers, the social workers, the NHS (National Health Service in England) staff and the teachers. Teachers generally have around 30 children in a class, often from a wide range of backgrounds, so they need professional knowledge and experiences to handle and develop them on a proper way. Now the children during the corona virus lockdown are learning from home with their parents who try to provide anything similar to what teachers offer our children.
Unfortunately, there are disadvantaged children who lack support at home, children who need special education and help. The teachers mean special miracles for those children and they know that despite their best efforts, many of their pupils aren’t really getting any meaningful education. These teachers “feel like a doctor seeing a sick patient, but not able to administer the medicine”.
The next challenges will be after these children getting back to school. Some of them will be excited to have the environment with their friends and teachers in the school again, but there will be a lot of children who enjoyed their time away from school and will face difficulties to leave the security was given by their family. The teachers have to handle the new situation and try to re-engage all of these children, and we have to recognize that this job will be harder than ever, and they will need the Government’s support as well.
