Distance Learning (“DL”) should be funded across all our primary and secondary schools. Essentially, the staffing and funding of this should be carried out by treating DL as an additional subject to be delivered through existing structures. For example, schools should establish DL leads, funded in the same way as subject or department leads. SchoolContinue reading “Distance Learning: A Core Educational Provision Addressing Urgent Learning Gaps and the Ongoing Achievement Deficit.”

Since leaving university in 2012 and 2018 with a BA in Politics and MA International Relations, as of 2021 I remain unemployed. This is despite applying for 2000 jobs and attending 200 interviews.

GPs have extended the use of triage and phone and video consultations during the pandemic. I assume that, in the same way as different drugs were trialled to see which worked best to counteract the disease, these different practices are being evaluated to see what woks best for which patients and which diagnoses. There hasContinue reading “Improving the way that GPs operate and building up a comprehensive health database.”

The problem of rapidly increasing unemployment for those from lower socio-economic backgrounds and with reduced opportunities due to a lack of academic qualifications, is one of the key consequences of the COVID-19 Pandemic. “From Pandemic to Academic,” would offer those who have lost their jobs due to the pandemic, access a short, intense Bridging ModuleContinue reading “From Pandemic to Academic”

This issue is extremely complex so can’t be solved by just one approach; therefore, I suggest that several ideas and proposals are needed to meet the overall solution. The aim is to encourage employers to employ more young people, by creating new opportunities and upskilling candidates, improving their future career prospects and employment chances inContinue reading “Solutions to increase employment opportunities for the younger generation post-covid.”

1. Challenges The COVID-19 brought us the following challenges. First, in the psychological aspect, social isolation and loneliness lead to increased rates of mental illness overall, and especially among youngsters and women [1]. Second, in the social aspect, the UK suffered from a devastating loss of charity funds with many organizations having to close downContinue reading “Support bubbles transformed into Social Assets: for enhanced post-COVID recovery and effective response to emergency”

The problem I would like to fix is one of abject loneliness felt among certain groups in society. There has been a loneliness pandemic in the UK long before COVID-19. This is a hidden disease which is debilitating in itself but can also give rise to physical health problems and shorten lives.
