School, a place of relationship: six lessons for primary school during lockdown

Abstract

The health emergency caused by the Covid-19 pandemic has made it necessary for schools to activate distance learning. Specifically, this essay exposes the results of a researchaction, started a few days after the closure of the schools, with a view to both analyzing the salient aspects of distance learning and pedagogical reflection on the forms of school that will reopen. The relationships (between teacher and pupils, between peers, between teachers, between different areas of knowledge, between school and family, between pupils and knowledge), in the context of primary school, are the focus of this essay and represent,
according to the authors' gaze, the aspect from which to start in order to structure a quality school, attentive to the needs of each child, in an inclusive and intercultural perspective.
