shocking


A star primary school headteacher was today suspended for claiming that
some teachers were 'sat at home doing nothing' during lockdown in an
interview about the wider reopening of schools across the UK.


Pauline Wood, from Grange Park in Sunderland, is being investigated for
potentially bringing her school into 'disrepute' during an interview on BBC radio
in which she blasted some teachers for not pulling their weight.


But others rallied to the head's defence and praised her 'refreshing honesty'.
One Twitter user wrote: 'I think Pauline Wood deserves a pat on the back for
being honest. I work with teachers every day and I can guarantee some
really are lazy. Some have not worked 10 hours a week let alone flat out.'

School closures are overwhelmingly impacting disadvantaged children, with a recent survey revealing two million children in the UK had done barely any schoolwork at home during the coronavirus lockdown.

People took to Twitter to praise Mrs Wood's 'refreshing honesty', with one account posting: 'Pauline Wood head teacher from grange park tells the truth about lazy teachers doing nothing during lockdown and gets suspended'.

Another social media user commented: 'I think Pauline Wood deserves a pat on the back for being honest. I work with teachers everyday and I can guarantee some really are lazy.

'Some have not worked 10 hours a week let alone flat out.'
