Over the last weeks, I've been reporting on the impact of Covid #lockdowns on #children in areas of disadvantage @TodaywithClaire @drivetimerte @RTERadio1 and boy, have I learnt a few lessons! A few thoughts here.. @PEIN_Ire @Ramsgrange_CS @eoind87

What impact has lockdown had on vulnerable school children?
