StarLine – National home-learning helpline
A national helpline has been set up for parents struggling with home-schooling and managing their child’s behaviour during the COVID-19 crisis. The service, launched by a coalition of academy trusts and parenting groups, will offer advice to families on how to educate their children at home while schools remain closed amid the pandemic. StarLine will be run by a team of teachers and education and parenting experts, who will share tips and resources to help home-learning.
