My Mrs says her school is safe as can be with the bubbles they had formed before Christmas.......Government gives guidelines and Heads have to enforce i suppose.

bit of JP humour

Forgot to say that the NEU said don't worry you'll still get full pay if you don't go in which must be tempting when you've been off the two weeks previous

My missus went in today to start testing staff, only 18 of them were in so time to get used to things, keyworker kids will be tested tomorrow

fair play to her

support staff / admin staff / TA's / SLT doing the testing appears to be a common theme.

I'm at home until the end of the week working online - I've noticed that my working day has become extended to just before midnight - although some of the stuff i did later on last night may have been a bit red wine enabled...

in school delivering 'live' online lessons from Monday. Not sure of the logic in saying we must be in the school building (and risk the school internet crashing due to constant use by 100+ teachers) rather than do the very same job from my table here, but it's government dictate so i won't look for any sense in it

My missus says teachers in her school get a choice, they can do lessons from home or in the building. Depending on the subject some prefer to go in because it's easier.
Anyway enough about her school for today

hmmm - we've been advised that as 'public servants' the work from home guidance doesn't apply and the expectation is that we are in the building.

grey area... like my head!

If kids don't have access to a laptop they can go to school as they are classed as vulnerable , hows it working out with the spring promise, that every kid was going to get a laptop ?

imagine this conversation...

Gavin - look Johnny! I've got you a lovely new bike helmet.

Johnny - but I haven't got a bike

Gavin - see! it's lovely and new and shiny!

Johnny - but I haven't got a bike

Gavin - enjoy! and don't forget to tell all your friends where you got your new helmet.

Johnny - but I haven't got a bike

Gavin - can't stop - I'm off to deliver a helmet to Sally next door

Johnny - but she hasn't ... oh, never mind. **** off Gavin

No difference between that maggot Trump and Jimmy Hoffa. What a disgrace he's turned the USA into.

Blimey.

Can't help thinking if they were BLM protestors storming the Capitol, there would be stacks of dead bodies everywhere.

If the United States saw what the United States is doing in the United States, the United States would invade the United States, to liberate the United States from the tyranny of the United States.

Yet under Trump the US has not had any wars or invaded anyone.
I'm not a Trump or Biden supporter by the way, Trump will be gone soon and the other one will be in.
I know what happens over there affects us but I 'm of the mind just let them get on with it at the moment, it's just Trumps last show of defiance in his last couple of weeks then we will see if Biden is any better.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
