sent and received by former health secretary Matt Hancock during the pandemic, has repeated inaccurate claims about “ghost children” who left education “forever” due to lockdown., describing the 100,000 figure in this way is misleading. It is a figure for the number of children in England who missed at least half of their school sessions in Autumn 2020, not the number of children who disappeared completely from education.published by the Telegraph both online and in print on 2 March.
The Telegraph removed the line from the online article after being contacted by Full Fact, and issued a print correction on 9 March which described the 100,000 claim as “incorrect”.with the BBC’s political editor Chris Mason on the Newscast podcast, saying “over 100,000 children were lost to education forever because of the repeated lockdowns in schools.”
Although the figure quoted by Ms Oakeshott does not show what she claimed, that’s not to say that school attendance isn’t an issue. The number of children missing at least half the time they should be at school has risen significantly since the start of the pandemic.
Isabel Oakeshott, is just a common thief, and who's word and actions prove she can't be trusted
As if you even had to print that she lied about a fact.. her, Tice & banks are masters at it.
Read your analysis with interest. One point you don't mention is that at the time of this analysis we also had isolation and absence due to contacts testing positive. This surely raised severe absence data at that time in a way that doesn't happen now?
More intentional misinformation, or lies as we used to say
Isabel Oakeshott not having a clue what she's talking about? Surely not
