Lockdown measures intended to stem the spread of the CCP virus have caused a regression in children’s basic skills and learning, a new report has revealed.

As part of the lockdown measures adopted by the British government in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, which was caused by the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, all schools in England were closed in March and stayed shut until the new school year began in September. Only children of key workers were allowed to go to school.
