The BBC has unveiled the "biggest push on education in its history" to support "every child in the UK".

While parents take on the role of teacher it is welcome news that BBC are helping with daily lessons for all ages.

BBC Bitesize will deliver daily online lessons for all age groups, it says, while daily programmes will help guide parents and children.

BBC Director General Lord Hall said: "In these uncertain times parents look to the BBC to support them and offer education while children can't be in school.

"This is the biggest education effort the BBC has ever undertaken. This comprehensive package is something only the BBC would be able to provide.

"We are proud to be there when the nation needs us, working with teachers, schools and parents to ensure children have access and support to keep their learning going - come what may."
