As many of you are likely to be aware, Lockdown has brought a whole host of challenges and demands that have never been encountered before. Here at Sivill Service in Tattershall, Lincolnshire, we teamed up with the BBC to help combat some of these issues. Here is a bit of a glimpse at our side of the story. 

The Coronavirus (Covid-19) has had one of the most dramatic impacts upon the population in the UK that are under 16 years old.

More and more classes have headed online and there are large numbers of children within the UK suffering with what is known as the Digital Deprivation.
