A new competition has encouraged students to talk about how the COVID-19 pandemic has affected their education experiences, so that more can be done to make blended learning better in future.
David’s day normally begins at 4:30 am, when he gets up from bed to prepare for school. He needs to be out of the house and on the bus a half hour later, so that he turns up to class on time.
As the clock moves towards 7 am, the time at which school begins, David is joined on board by a number of his classmates, their bus halting outside their homes for a few minutes at a time, making slow but steady progress towards their destination.
