Operation Pied Piper was the wartime effort by the government to get the children of the towns to safety in the country. Children from private schools were moved together so they could continue their lessons as the usual. Millions of other children were taught out of pubs, church halls and anywhere else there was room.
Evacuees learned a variety of subjects at school, including reading, writing, math, science, history, and physical education. The curriculum aimed to provide them with a well-rounded education despite the disruptions and challenges of being away from their homes during a time of crisis. Along with academic subjects, they also learned important life skills and values to help them navigate through the difficult circumstances they were facing.
They were expected to do what children in schools everywhere do - learn.
