Julian Frances, a parent from north London, told the BBC his Year 8 child had autism and ADHD and struggled to attend school, even on a reduced timetable.
April – who uses they/them pronouns – has not fully attended school since the pandemic. The 12 year old has found it challenging to learn in classrooms with other students since lockdown measures were lifted – especially when there is lots of noise.
"The other week, I had to go and pick them up and they were in complete distress," said Mr Frances. "They couldn't talk to me for 20 minutes until they had calmed down."
"They can't even express how it feels - it's just this complete overwhelming sense that they can't deal with everything."
