Sure

They can’t reopen the schools completely ( for all pupils) whilst there’s still around 1000 innocent people dying each and EVERY day ( including care homes and at their own homes ) . A leading authority stated the other day that they can’t even consider it until the daily death rate is under 100 ..

Also many ( decent ) parents won’t risk sending their precious children to the school germ breeding factories for some time ... some families have older parents also living in the family home so they will also keep their children away from school..

The only parents clamouring for the kids to go back are the ones who probably don’t even know where their unruly teenagers are at this very moment and others where their little brats are simply driving them mad at home. .

Sorry rant over !

Also given the governments new initiatives.. . supplying laptops and tablets to pupils , the new online learning academy and the new BBC learning platform all apparently launching today SUGGESTS that schools will thankfully be closed for some considerable time !!

I think reopening schools this side of summer is a very bad idea, far too difficult to implement proper social distancing

I don't want them to reopen as it will set us back to square one

Not necessarily true. I would love my son to be back in school, getting the education he deserves. He is only year 4 and well ahead of his education targets but home schooling is just not the same as being in an education setting.

I think they will be back before the summer break but not for long and it won't be full classes or normal as to what they are used to.

I feel for kids and parents during this time.

For two weeks before summer break so they can transition, particularly year 6 and nursery year groups

Netherlands: schools are partially reopening here on 11th of May, just adding this for statistics


most parents are overjoyed urgh i hate career-invested parents who dislike their children being with them 24/7, if you want to focus on career, don't go for children


so yeah if more infected come now here, it is on those parents their hands

As you say EVEN if the schools do go back for a few weeks end of June early July - there won’t be any real teaching / learning happening - the kids certainly won’t be open to learning whatever their parents choose to believe . It will be low key and possibly enable some year 6 transition visits to high schools ..

my mums a teaching assistant and shes been furloughed until september at least..

idk about every school but at hers, only 1 teacher per 10 attending students are needed in the school at any one time so theres literally maybe 3 teachers (and a few higher up/office staff) who are even going in

it'll be discussed here further in our dutch parliament too, if teachers (who are in age risk group) can be told not to come to work in the current times, and let younger teachers step in for them

our parliament does that alongside OMT (outbreak management team)
