I think what we did during the lockdown doesn't count as a proper test of home schooling / remote working. What we did here in Belgium is to force kids to stay at home and force parents to work from home WHILE the kids are there. I have 3 and none of the teachers throughout 3 months of confinement had a single Skype session with any. We're talking about <10 years old so a single teacher is normally dedicated to the kids. In effect on top of working from home we have to do the job of 3 teachers. Actually make it 6 teachers because the normal school lessons are half-day between 9 and 12 noon and in the afternoon another teacher is taking over or they just throw the pupils into a playground. So yes, it doesn't work under these circumstances.
