Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to present a recent research study undertaken to investigate the psychological impact of quarantine and the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic and the possible changes in the routine/everyday life of children, school performance and sociality of primary school students. The ultimate aim of the research is to contribute to a meaningful understanding of this contemporary social phenomenon and to the selection of targeted prevention or treatment interventions both at the individual and family level, as well as in the context of education and society in general. 120 parents of primary school children residing in Greece participated in the present survey. According to the findings, many respondents answered that the psychological state of their children was negatively affected, the main reason being the absence of social contacts. Several participants (32.5%) stated that their children were moderately depressed during both the first and second wave of the coronavirus pandemic. Most parents (87.5%) noted changes in their children’s routines/routines during both waves of the pandemic.
