(14 April 2022) Selma, 7, doesn't listen to what the teacher says, she has outbursts of anger and frustration, is stubborn and screams, throws pens and other writing utensils around the class room.

(28 March 2022) Images are powerful. Teachers are particularly aware of this when talking to their pupils these days. Children and young people are directly confronted with the Ukraine conflict via YouTube, Tiktok and other social networks. Often they are on their own.

Teachers and educators are the only contact persons for some children.
