yes i deffinately believe so. the government devised the pied piper scheme in order to protect children from the larger cities and the potential air raids. even though during the phoney war many people where evacuated for seemingly no reason, as no bombs fell, it was used as a dry run for the other 2 consecutive evacuations that where done on shorter notice. the only real failure of evacuation was when the city of belnares ( sorry about my spelling) was torpedoed by German subs killing over 70 children. yet with people all over Britain opening their homes to help towards the war effort,it was a great sucess, as it gave mothers more time to work in the RCAF and things, so all in all even though some children had bad eperiences, it saved their lives, so there ya go that's my GCSE answer lol have a great day all .

Problems with the evacuation plan in world war 2?
The evacuation plan during World War 2 was flawed in several ways. First of all, the government created a panic by using exaggerated figures for casualties. This panic worked against smooth moving, and caused a bottleneck in the operation. Once the children had arrived in the countryside, they found little or no preparation had been made. As a result, the children arrived at the wrong locations, had few rations, and found out there were not enough homes to accommodate the children.
