It's Your Round Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 My lad will be at home til the 11th then, good job he’s self motivated in revising for his A Levels because his teachers have not exactly embraced remote learning technology. The secondary school English teacher next door will be most pleased that she’s got an extra week or so off. She’s already complained that two weeks holiday wasn’t enough, despite her spending the summer ‘WFH’, sunbathing in the garden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When they returned in September it was clear a lot of parents did absolutely nothing with their kids. The school did a whole series of tests when they returned and my lad was saying some of the kids were getting 3’s and 4’s out of 30 and said they did no school work at all during the lockdown.

Picture a 60 year old English teacher with long grey hair and saggy tits, then imagine her more ugly sister and you won’t be far off. I’ll let you decide if you WB.

It’s not for the want of trying, my 13 year old just would not play ball and caused so many arguments it was horrible 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The neighbour teacher said her school hasn’t even suggested using Zoom/Teams. She’s just emailed work and marked whatever came back, which was only a small percentage. I was training people through Teams within a week of being sent home. How come I can do it but they can’t or won’t. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, we all know that kids from different households don’t mix in schools. There must be an element of accuracy in this as schools have been shut for 2 weeks now and the numbers have just started going through the roof. My children’s primary school didn’t shut at all from September to Christmas. I’m surprised so little is understood about where the majority of transmissions are happening.
