Bitesize Primary Parents' Survival Guide - Episode 5

It’s the summer term, but don’t worry, Bitesize have your back. This is your simple guide to a whole host of brilliant BBC content for every primary school age pupil. Let the BBC’s Eli Sessions and former assistant head-teacher Deborah James (You, Me and the Big C) hold your hand through the summer term. From a new way to sing the alphabet, a chemistry lesson from Paramedics about oxygen, to stories from Matt Haig and beyond, they can help you build some structure in the chaos.
