Childhood Lost

Children today are noticeably different from previous generations, and the proof is in the news coverage we see every day. This site shows you what’s happening in schools around the world.

Children are increasingly disabled and chronically ill, and the education system has to accommodate them. Things we've long associated with autism, like sensory issues, repetitive behaviors, anxiety and lack of social skills, are now problems affecting mainstream students.

Blame is predictably placed on bad parenting (otherwise known as trauma from home).

Addressing mental health needs is as important as academics for modern educators. This is an unrecognized disaster. The stories here are about children who can’t learn or behave like children have always been expected to. What childhood has become is a chilling portent for the future of mankind.

April 18, 2019, ***Bury Free Press*: Special school proposals for Wetheringsett Manor** https://www.buryfreepress.co.uk/news/special-school-proposals-for-rural-manor-9067558/ A rural Mid Suffolk landmark could be getting a new lease of life as a special school. The NFA Group has submitted proposals to convert the Grade II Listed Wetheringsett Manor into a school that will educate 54 youngsters with special educational needs…. Education chiefs at Suffolk County Council admitted that demand for specialist places was increasing by around 18 per cent, which prompted a new £45 million [$58M US dollars] plan to create more than 800 extra spaces at new and existing schools…. The report said there was 'clearly a significant need for this type of facility within Suffolk' and the plans would create 'significant economic benefits'. The school will cater for 54 youngsters aged 11 to 19, and operate a teaching day of 8.45am to 3.15pm. … It has been confirmed that it will not be a boarding school but pupils will arrive by minibus and taxi from a maximum travel distance of an hour’s drive.
