2020 white paper. The impact of lockdown on children's education: a nationwide analysis
Mainstream state schools show substantial reductions in attainment between 2019 and 2020 and not all pupils appear to have been affected equally. This study looks at the impact of deprivation levels, location, subject and year group on performance.
Key findings include:
- Younger year groups show bigger reductions in attainment than older year groups
- Children eligible for the Pupil Premium show larger average declines than those who are not
- Schools with higher levels of deprivation, situated in urban areas or located in the north or midlands, show greater declines
- Differences were seen between topics within the same subject
