Classroom Challenges and social pressure is daunting enough without the additional stress of returning after a lockdown.

Never belittle or trivialise their problems.

Coming out of lockdown presents particular challenges for families with kids will have been in school all along; some will have had a good lockdown experience; some will have struggled for many reasons, and some will not be going back at all this side of the summer break

Share some of your feelings and experiences in an age-appropriate manner. Also share your own healthy coping mechanisms. Try to keep communication channels open so they will talk honestly with you. Discuss important issues but also make time for silly stories about your day or theirs.

This is a challenging time for families as they readjust while still dealing with anxieties and worries about the pandemic, jobs, relatives, and finances.

Make it a priority to motivate their learning. Be curious and interested in their lessons and link it back to the learning they did at home if you can.

Give specific, concrete praise such as "I really like your detailed approach to this project," rather than a general comment " That's great!"

Your child may be excited about the return to school and reuniting with their friends, or they may be worried and anxious. Talk to them about what they are looking forward to and what concerns they may have about going back to school.

Don't be afraid to ask for help. Let teachers know if you're worried about anything in particular, or if you feel child could benefit from extra help in making the transition back from home to school.

Try to act as a sounding board, listening without immediately offering advice. Sometimes just talking something through can help children come up with solutions of their own.

Take your child's concerns seriously. Academic

We were missing clothes and shoe shops most, according to an Elmbridge Borough Council survey A high street retail survey among Elmbridge residents, which had almost 1000 responses, has highlighted that we are missing clothes and shoe shops (70.3%) the most during lockdown, with department stores (44.5%) and book shops (32.4%) in second and third place.

understands the caution being displayed by Elmbridge residents on returning to the high A street but is keen to stress the hard work retailers and Elmbridge re Borough Council are putting into make the high street re-opening ha as safe as possible:

an

“Our retailers are implementing queuing sysdo tems, one-way store navigation, extra cleanbo ing and screens at check outs all to make the shopping experience as safe as possible. From Elmbridge Borough Council’s side, we are supporting local high streets and parades with signage, street cleaning and our ‘Love Elmbridge’ campaign aimed to encourage shoppers to respect social distancing, shop local and most of all to be kind to each other when they return to the high street.”

As shop owners across Elmbridge prepare to reopen, it seems the risk of contracting COVID-19 is the biggest concern among respondents, with over a quarter (27.3%) expecting to wait a few weeks before deciding on whether to return to the high street.

Respondents also said they expect queues in shops, social distancing measures, contactless card payments and being unable to touch or try on items when they return to the high street.

36% of respondents do not expect to return to the high street when it re-opens on June 15, with 34% responding ‘maybe’ and 30% expecting to return on day 1 of re-opening.

When asked if they would expect to return later on in the week of 15 June, 32% said yes, 28% said no and 40% said maybe.

Cllr Christine Elmer, Portfolio Holder for Community and Corporate Development,

Shop owners from around the borough are telling Elmbridge Borough Council about their re-opening and all those details can be found on our website. Additionally, almost 70 high street retailers have been awarded a grant of up to £250 to implement safety measures such as screens and social distancing signage.

Elmbridge Borough Council has paid 1,615 grants to Elmbridge businesses, worth £22.7M (approx. 95% of the initial funding given to Elmbridge Borough Council by Government).
