  • BRITISH FAMILIES in LOCKDOWN STUDY: the Impact of COVID 19 on Education and Children’S Services C
    BRITISH FAMILIES IN LOCKDOWN STUDY: The Impact of COVID 19 on Education and Children’s Services C. Clayton, R. Clayton and M. Potter. Leeds Trinity University ‘British Families in Lockdown’ is a qualitative study led by Leeds Trinity University which has investigated the day-to-day experiences of British families during the first seven weeks of lockdown. Fifty-six families from a diverse set of socio-economic backgrounds, geographies, religions and cultures participated in telephone or video calling semi-structured interviews and they shared their detailed, personal stories and experiences of employment, children’s schooling, health, well-being, family life, leisure time and technology use during the first phase of lockdown. Outside of this study, reported Covid-19 evidence is overwhelmingly quantitative based, scientific, clinical, anecdotal or journalistic, as such, these qualitative insights will help build a more rounded picture of British family experiences. The study was quick to respond to the pandemic and is one of the few qualitative studies collecting data from the UK population during the initial stage of lockdown. Our initial findings demonstrate some of the complex ways in which Covid-19 has impacted children’s services and education. Our data supports quantitative reports to some extent but there is contrasting evidence and wider issues to also consider. SUMMARY OF MAIN FINDINGS Some families who were provided a school place for their child, did not necessarily take up the school offer. They felt that keeping their children at home was safer. Access to support services for some families discontinued and there was limited, or no further contact made with the children during the initial period of lockdown.

We conducted a randomized control trial in a major northern city to evaluate the impact of a low-cost intervention designed to promote parents’ social capital as a potential influence on children’s attendance in Head Start centers. The intervention assigned children to treatment group classrooms based on (1) neighborhood of residence (geography condition) or (2) the geography condition plus the opportunity for parents to form partnerships in support of their children’s attendance, or to control group classrooms according to Head Start guidelines only.

  • Chinese Funeral Traditions the Rules Around Death Are Very Important To
    Chinese Funeral Traditions The rules around death are very important to all members of Chinese society. Special attention is paid to the care of the dead and very specific rules are followed. It is widely believed that bad luck will come to the family that does not honor the rules. In Chinese culture, traditions can vary depending on the deceased’s role in the family, their age, the manner of death, and their position in society. Care for one’s parents is complete and without question, so when a parent or elder dies, funeral planning falls to the eldest son and his children. A parent may not perform funeral planning for their child, so an unmarried person is taken to a funeral home upon death. Chinese rules also say that an older person must not show formal respect to a younger person. A child is therefore buried in silence and no funeral ceremonies are performed. Funeral traditions differ throughout China. Some Chinese people follow Christian beliefs and burial traditions. In Mainland China, there is land available for cemeteries, so Christian burials take place. Some Chinese people believe in the teachings of Buddha. In Hong Kong, the Buddhist practice of cremation is encouraged because the land there is needed for farming. Chinese Christians Many Chinese Christians believe a person’s body should be at home at the time of death. Often, a person who is dying in a hospital will be brought home to die peacefully, surrounded by loving family members and friends. When a death occurs, the family will immediately remove any mirrors from the home.

  • Action Steps for Parents to Protect Your Child and Family from the Flu This School Year
    Action Steps for Parents to Protect Your Child and Family from the Flu this School Year The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends 4 main ways you and your family may keep from getting sick with the flu at school and at home: 1. Practice good hand hygiene by washing your hands often with soap and water, especially after coughing or sneezing. Alcohol-based hand cleaners are also effec- tive. 2. Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. If you don’t have a tissue, cough or sneeze into your elbow or shoulder; not into your hands. 3. Stay home if you or your child is sick for at least 24 hours after there is no longer a fever or signs of a fever (without the use of fever-reducing medicine). Keep- ing sick students at home means that they keep their viruses to themselves rather than sharing them with others. 4. Get your family vaccinated for seasonal flu and 2009 H1N1 flu when vaccines are available. If flu conditions become MORE severe, parents should consider the following steps: Extend the time sick children stay home for at least 7 days, even if they feel better sooner. People who are still sick after 7 days should continue to stay home until at least 24 hours after symptoms have completely gone away. If a household member is sick, keep any school-aged brothers or sisters home for 5 days from the time the household member became sick. Parents should monitor their health and the health of other school-aged children for fever and other symptoms of the flu.
