Never has there been a time when parents have been more concerned about their child’s education. From the parents of the four year old starting school for the first time in the ‘new normal’, to the parents, whose son was unable to put pen to paper for his A ‘Levels and takes predicted grades to university with him. Having taught for over twenty years, I have come to learn that no matter where you are in the world, parents will put their child’s education first and foremost.

Private tuition is not a new concept but it has most certainly been thrown into the spotlight in recent months, with schools closed, parents struggling to ‘home teach’ and the government’s new tutoring initiative to help close the gap between disadvantaged children and their peers. However, what has changed is parents’ perceptions and a new understanding that tutoring is no longer an elitist concept and that extra tuition can come in many shapes and sizes.

Not all of the shows will be able to go live as we have a number of volunteers in high risk vulnerable groups, but we are hoping as the virus recedes, we can get back to a full live schedule.

Along with millions of people who have had to change their lifestyle, Scouts are no different. Scouting across Surrey has been continuing virtually, either by online meetings at the Scout/Explorer age or with challenges given to the Beavers and Cubs in the County.

The first challenge that the County issued was at the heart of Scouting and involved building a den, whether it was inside or outside in their garden, it was open to all.Cubs from every district in Surrey participated in what was a new first for the County.

In addition Bear Grylls, Chief Scout has said:-.
What extraordinary times we’re living in. Our hearts go out to every single family and community that’s been affected by this crisis. It’s really shone a spotlight on the incredible work our NHS and key workers do to look after us – you guys are heroes.

Like you, we’ve been adjusting to life in lockdown. We’ve been keeping our spirits up with family games, keeping to a routine, staying fit and learning new skills – I made a red velvet cake for my son’s 14th birthday (every bit as hard as climbing Everest!)
