On this edition of the Sky News Daily podcast, Jonathan Samuels looks at the huge challenge facing Britain's children, after months of lost learning. With the UK's COVID alert level lowered, and the government pledging £1bn for catch-up help, is a full return to schools in September achievable?

We are joined by Geoff Barton, general secretary of the Association of School & College Leaders (ASCL); Professor Becky Francis, chief executive of the Education Endowment Foundation (EEF); and Tamara Cohen, Sky's political correspondent.

Plus, we bring you the story of 'Ben', a 14-year-old boy who ran away from home at the height of the pandemic, and was dragged further into gang life.
