Cannot believe that this report says nothing about the alarming rise in children not understanding what teachers say to them in school! Supporting children struggling to talk and understand words must be a priority if we want to fix this issue.

I remember taking my children to visit Santa a few months after their mum died. As always, Santa asked them what they wanted. My son said, "Can you bring Mummy back?" I'd written to Santa ahead of our visit explaining our circumstances, so he was ready with a beautiful reply. 1/2
