ONE IN three nurseries in Britain’s poorest areas may be forced to close for good because of the devastating impact of Covid-19.

The Sutton Trust study also found that half of parents think their kids have become less happy in the lockdown.Credit: AlamySir Peter Lampl, boss of the Sutton Trust, said: “The first years of a child’s life are crucial for their development, both in terms of attainment and their social and emotional wellbeing. Access to high-quality early years education is key to this, particularly for children from disadvantaged backgrounds.

“The coronavirus crisis is having a devastating impact on the early years sector, with many nurseries and pre-schools facing closure. “This will inevitably have a long-lasting impact on children’s early development. Parents will struggle to find a place for their child. This will affect their ability to go to work.

“Now is the time, when the world has been turned upside down, to prioritise support for children and families. Crucially the government must introduce a package of support to protect early years providers and enable them to stay solvent.

Ten years of the sun in one hour – Nasa releases mesmerising space filmThe space agency gathered 425 million high-resolution images of the sun, which have now been stitched together to form the video Btw, who created the sun? 🤔 The entire experience of revising our begetter of life on this planet is quite zen. Unleashing life not just on Earth, but perhaps microbial life on our Moon, Mars, or distant moons on Jupiter and beyond. The music accompanying this one-hour video is meditative. Love it, thanks. I like how they painted it yellow to make it look more like it's seen from Earth, even though the Solar Dynamics Observatory is in space and sees the sun as white, and the range the images were taken from is not visible to the human eye 🤔
