We have been told upon returning in September only two members of staff will be allowed in the office at once. We are a team of 5. All have a desk in the office as practical based subject means we don’t have a set classroom just teaching spaces. We have team meetings 2 times a week in Morning usually in the office. All of our PPA and lesson organisation is done in the the office when at school no classrooms. It’s where we eat dinner and have a break. How is this going to work if only two are allowed in? What are the other three supposed to do? First come first served? Are we going to have to get to work at 6.30 to get in? How will we get everything ready for the day to collect all resources and swap stuff over for lesson? Looked at the timetable and 4 PPA everyone is off together so 4 hours where you can’t complete any ppa as you can’t access your desk? (That’s all my Allocation 3hrs ppa 1hr for tlr) There’s talk of ‘work stations’ but there’s not enough space to go round for everyone. So by time you’ve managed to collect what you need and wandered round school looking for an empty work station to complete your ppa and done the mandatory cleaning of it the time will be over?! What happens if we just ignore the rule? The desks are actually 1m + apart in the office. I just can’t see the logistics of it. Am I missing something?!
