"Let me take this chance to share with you how very grateful I am for Burstow's response to home-schooling.  Yes, it was a challenge for many, but I did feel that our school had a perfect balance of screen-based and self-regulated learning.  The staff were all amazing in their delivery of YouTube and Zoom lessons, something that really is not easy to do!  So thank you all, so very much"..

"One of the parents at the school has recently got in touch with me to share your message and celebration you will be putting on for pupils when they return on Monday.  As such, I just wanted to drop you an email to say what a fantastic sentiment and way for the pupils to reflect positively on what they have gained from this different time.  I will certainly share the message with my colleagues in Parliament".
