Teacher in France, so we've already been off for two weeks. We're all waiting with bated breath for news about the end of year exams, which for the moment are still on. Rumours are of course running wild in the mean time.
We're trying to muddle through the best we can, but I'm already getting increasingly concerned about how this is going to affect students in the long term. Some have very implicated parents and easy access to technology, whilst some have 4 siblings, one computer and I can already see they are struggling even though we have been very careful about the amount of work given. Some don't have any support at home at all.
I fear for how this will widen the gap in the long term, especially because setting is very rarely done in France, we're expected to differentiate in our own classes. I can imagine some will behind and be permanently left behind...
Whether you're a permanent teacher, supply teacher or student teacher, you'll find others in the same situation on our Staffroom forum.

What do you think the ling term consequences of this period will be?
