During the outbreak of Covid-19 Cluey was very active in helping parents and families with remote learning.  Cluey conducted a survey of parents during the home learning period.  The key findings can be toggled below.

Key Findings

They better understand how their child learns as a result of at-home learning (over 65%)

Almost one third believe their child’s learning has suffered during this period

Lack of peer-to-peer learning has been the biggest educational challenge for their child (47%)

Their child likes or even loves online learning (48%)

” Many schools are already flagging the challenges represented by serving the needs of their students remotely. There is the more obvious issue of access to the appropriate technology and then comes the necessary skillset to deploy it effectively. Plus adapting what works in the classroom to an online environment isn’t always easy. These point to a potential issue of learning inequity that has not been fully anticipated or provided for…” Dr. Selina Samuels, Chief Learning Officer, Cluey Learning
